::::: It would be a strange decision to compare just the keywords of two languages as a ''feature'' comparison. If the language designers chose to reserve another keyword, or put it into one of the basic libraries, is an almost arbitrary choice for many features. Maybe what some of you want is a comparative listing of the two sets of reserved keywords, while others want a functional comparison about what it's like to develop software in the two languages. I think the second would be more the interesting article, if both were produced. --[[User:Nigelj|Nigelj]] ([[User talk:Nigelj|talk]]) 16:03, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
::::::Good points. Dumbing down a programming language comparison to compare keywords would not just be uninteresting but also dishonest. You can certainly compare features without considering the BCLs. I still (like I have said several times over in the discussions above) would welcome a discussion on ''which'' parts of the BCLs to incorporate. Dragging in JDO, JPA, LINQ to Entities etc. is taking it too far IMO. Collection classes? yes. Please take part of the discussion on this topic, because we need to do this. Like I said, AWT is *not* part of Java (the language) just as WPF and WinForms are not part of C#. You can certainly do a comparison of AWT/Swing/WPF/WinForms - but not in this article.

::::::: I must disagree about AWT event handling. You can't do ANY event handling on GUI components in java without using AWT event handling (or it will be VERY hard), because it's hard wired into the language. You can get rid of the AWT components, but not events (and not graphics either). There are two parts of AWT, which people may find confusing: the "core" part, which interface with the native event handling, graphics, and windowing system. And the AWT components. Your WPF and WinForms comparison is valid only for the latter part. [[User:Hervegirod|Hervegirod]] ([[User talk:Hervegirod|talk]]) 17:55, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
