| Jun 30, 2020 at 23:20 | comment | added | anon | @ChrisF: When a poster "hates" and doesn't understand a fundamental language feature, what is a helpful answer if not recommending a different language that doesn't have that feature? | |

| Jul 29, 2014 at 21:56 | comment | added | Trixie Wolf | @Batibix C++ is not low-level, and Java isn't much "higher-level" than C++. If you are referring to things like flexibility of selecting stack vs. heap, optimizers kind of quashed that difference a long time ago. | |
| Jul 29, 2014 at 21:54 | comment | added | Trixie Wolf | @OliverWeiler I don't perceive "become a Java developer" as an insult. I program both in C++ and Java, but my preference by far is Java because it's so much easier to sit down and bang out code that works (and more portable). If you for some reason detest the existence of header files, trying Java may be the right choice (though it's odd you would hate header files; I'd consider a change in IDE). | |

| Jan 10, 2011 at 18:56 | comment | added | John Reynolds | If you want to do low level, forget everything about 'easy languages'. Low level costs sweat and tears. | |
| Jan 10, 2011 at 17:34 | comment | added | Berin Loritsch | @BlaXpirit, Not natively, no. There is a Java/C bridge where you can wrap your Win32 DLLs with Java objects. @Helper Method, Having been a Java Developer, I know what you mean. :) | |
| Jan 10, 2011 at 16:54 | comment | added | Oliver Weiler | I don't know why, but 'Become a Java developer' somehow sounds like an insult :D. | |
| Jan 10, 2011 at 16:53 | comment | added | Oleh Prypin | kthx, I somewhat know Java, but you can't make low-level Win32 DLLs with it, can you? | |
