]]> Comment on JavaFX and its future by Leonardo http://blog.cjtech.co.uk/index.php/2008/12/08/javafx-future/comment-page-1/#comment-335 Leonardo Thu, 05 Nov 2009 20:02:10 +0000 http://blog.cjtech.co.uk/?p=72#comment-335 Don't know if this thread is still open. I agree with most of comments, but there's a point all of you are missing: you are talking with "internet" in mind, and mostly with the idea of some "fast and furios" user which is gonna surf and choose or discard the application he wants. RIA stands for application, not for "rich internet web site". That's partially true, but suppose you are accessing your bank account. I would honestly prefer to wait the application to load, and be sure of a solid rock technology behind, rather than fast loading but buggy. So...no matter of waiting, you don't have to test, you have to use. There's a lot of software which has loading time, photoshop, flash, office, openoffice...don't know why the loading time is not allowed for java. Today the browser is no more an html renderer, but it's a container for something else (flash, media player ecc...), it's time now to change point of view and think about application. I was one of the first flash developer, with flash 3. At that time everybody wanted flash web site, I am speaking about entire web site made with flash. Soon...people realized that flash was just not made for it...and by now I cannot see a web site or serious application made entirely with flash or flex. Market is not requiring much flex or flash developer...market is asking for java, .net developer... Software like flash or flex, require the "one man show" mind. Java or .net instead can separate layer (in theory), and allow companies to split duties and use staff knowledge. Javafx should do a step in this direction too... You should have notice that application and games on iPhone takes a few seconds to load, but no one complains. Don’t know if this thread is still open.
