Hi
I did feel a bit disappointed on OWL not "keeping" up with MFC, given
that OWL had a good start. (it was ludicruous to compare OWL2 and VC1.5
at one point of time). I have used both and my non-biased opinion would
be that OWL was much more intuitive and easier to use. IMO, the MFC has
now become too complicated. (If you dont believe me, just get some recent
MSJ issues and you will find that the simplest questions have complicated
answers.)
Anyway, the java language and the ides were here not long ago, and I
believe it will hang around for some more time. And if the situation
changes, the simplest thing to do for all the developers is to follow it.
you may like it or not, application developers are always at the mercy of
tool developers who are at the mercy of os developers who are at the
mercy of hw engineers who have their own laws ;-)
