No, better than the c# generics, not worse than.

Take care,

So then Java is a weaker language than C#?  Is that what you're saying?

Since java 1.5.

They are actually, in a minor way, but one I really don't feel like spending
4 paragraphs on, better than the c# generics.

When you get into generics of generics and passing them around and then getting 
tricky with specifiers, is when you notice the minor
differences between java and c#.

I actually wrote up an email to Ken and Chris Hofstader, both from this list, 
as a part of an old project we were working on,
complaining about this difference ... *thinks to himself whether he can find 
that old email*



Take care,
Sina

Hi, since when did Java get Generics like in C# -- just curious as to when it 
became part of the Java SE JDK. Anyone know?
