Developers Express Widespread Dissatisfaction With Java
prnewswire.com
PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Market Decisions Corp. today
announced the preliminary results of a new research study that asked
developers about their experiences with Java. The study found that the
majority of developers have a high degree of dissatisfaction with Java and do
not feel that it meets all of their expectations. Two-thirds (67 percent) of
the Java developers surveyed said that having to test on multiple virtual
machines and platforms was an issue affecting their Java development plans.
In many cases, survey participants said that the testing required to make Java
work on multiple platforms outweighed any other benefits provided by Java and,
as a result, they have scaled back or, in some cases, completely halted their
use of Java. Only 22 percent of developers surveyed indicated that they were
very satisfied with Java as a cross-platform development language
