Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Er, no. That wasn't the argument.
The argument was "all Java desktop apps suck". To which a list was provided.

The Peter asked for a list of Smalltalk apps that don't suck. To which a list was provided. Now, if you want to provide a list, you'd better expect you're going to be asked to back up the "don't suck" part.

And you're not "done" until you address the % of Java developers working on back-end vs. front-end (non-web). If 1/100 (or whatever) Java developers are actually working on a front-end application (I'd be surprised), then you can start a comparison.

So don't spout, then run crying when someone calls "bullshit". That's childish.

"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New Whose argument was that?
Rarely have I ever used a Java application that worked properly.

Rarely have I ever used... != I have never used... HTH.

My daughters both use (and I have on occasion) LimeWire and I've never had a problem with it. It loads reasonably quickly, has a nice intuitive interface, etc. For what it does, it's quite good. I know I apologized to you before, but ferchrissakes Scott, think about this for a second: You take my above sentence and imply that it is equivalent to, "All java desktop apps suck." Understand now why one might get the impression that there is at least some hypersensitivity around here concerning Java?

Me, I'm bailing before I start getting called all sorts of names again ;0)

jb4 asked for counterexamples against "all Java applications are crap", and that's when Peter started his list. Whether or not that's what you said, that's the list Peter was presenting. :-)

New Things were childish long before this
If we want to address non-desktop apps, then Smalltalk still wins as more productive - ie more useful code per developer working. Most Smalltalk apps are enterprise - client server deals. No Smalltalk is not good for shrinkwrap - neither is Java. I would say that the quality of what you get with Smalltalk, allowing for non-native GUI variation, is much higher per unit of effort than you get with Java.

I have a little firsthand knowledge of the general suckiness of Java for desktop apps, unlike the rest of you whiners, I've actually written one.

[link|http://homepage.mac.com/tblanchard|http://homepage.mac.com/tblanchard] - the JEOModeler app is written using Swing, it models schemas for use with WebObjects. I put quite a lot of work into it and, while it works well enough to do the job, for the level of effort expended, it sucks.

So I'd say I know a little bit about what I'm talking about WRT Java desktop app development sucking.

But none of this has anything to do with anything.

Exit, stage up.

New Who said a damn thing about development?
If programming Java applications meant that you had to stick pins in your face and hit yourself in the gonads with a hammer once an hour on the hour, it wouldn't alter the fact that there are good, nay excellent desktop applications written in Java.

The fact that programming SmallTalk is, apparently, akin to being gently fellated by angels doesn't alter the fact that you couldn't come up with a single non-arse desktop application.

Change the subject and then fuck off? You're turning into a politician. Or a manager.

New Hey Peter
Fuck you. We were talking about Java. I granted you 2 apps that don't suck. I don't really need to defend Smalltalk, its made its mark and it remains the primary fount of innovation in the industry.

Given that Smalltalk isn't build to do native desktop apps, you might as well ask for fucking SQL desktop apps and proclaim it a load o shit as well.

Apparently your fucking google finger is broken. Pity thats all.

[link|http://www.whysmalltalk.com/production/index.htm|http://www.whysmallt...duction/index.htm]

'course, "apps" is rather a quaint concept when you think of it - precious few bits of smalltalk are bundled into "apps", they're just fucking objects that get added to the environment. Ripping them out into "apps" isn't exactly natural.

However, if you'd like to see a few "projects" [link|http://www.squeaksource.com|http://www.squeaksource.com] is the squeak project repository. Some are "apps" (email clients, jabber client, modeling tools) others are just libs. There's not a huge difference in Smalltalk.

[link|http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/publicRepository/|http://www.cincomsma...publicRepository/] is for the visualworks platform.

You might also google 'jwars', its the fucking planning tool running the US military these days, its also written in Smalltalk but if you download it we'll have to fucking kill you. [link|http://www.caci.com/business/systems/simulation/jwars.shtml|http://www.caci.com/...ation/jwars.shtml]

The Discovery Manager\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd software follows the scientific flow of the organization from clinical data and genetic map to physical map, sequence, structure, and function. The modern design of the system addresses the complex organizational and data issues created by the collaborative nature of genome investigations. Central to the power of the software is the rich computer representation and semantics of biological objects and scientific processes. Its framework allows the researcher to seamlessly move data from one step to the next and from one organization to another, across multiple computer platforms. A unified user interface provides access to both proprietary and public domain data analysis tools and algorithms. Information flows across both internet and intranet to facilitate worldwide communication. Genomica software thus allows the scientist to drive the gene discovery and functional analysis process rapidly, efficiently and effectively. It provides a more focused approach to uncovering gene candidates, and turning gene candidates into targets for drug discovery.

hr@ms.com
From the late 80's to November 1993, more than a hundred people were coding smalltalk in ObjectWorks 4.1 for a variety of internal applications. Then, all of a sudden, in a speech addressed to the 1100 IT professionals o the firm, the C++ programming language was chosed to be the *official* language to be used everywhere, and where the specialized feaures of a specific other programming language were not essential. However, some ObjectWorks (and now VisualWorks) apps are still in production and once in a while someone is asked to tweak it to patch in some new features. Isolated, unknown to most people, and mysterious, they do however still get the job done. They are *Legacy* smalltalk applications.
