hi
i recently had a conversation with someone who said that an advantage of C# over
Java is that C# uses JIT. now, i have a very simple understanding of what JIT
is, and thus didn't know if this is true/false, and if it is indeed true, then
why is Java not using JIT? Is it purely due to the "age" of Java, i.e. we now
know that JIT is the way forward, and so C# used it from the word go? What are
the advantages/disadvantages of using this?
thank you.

JIT Compiling means "Just In Time..." it is a dynamic compiler that
has been in Java since JDK 1.2. There are some disadvantages, so Java
allows you to turn it off. Java, by the way, was not the first
language to use the concept of JIT.
Typical Microsofties, though, taking an age-old concept and claiming
it's unique to C#. Sheesh, makes you wonder why they didn't patent
the idea of a "variable."
RE: patent comment
Don't laugh, but I went to a class on PLM given by Intel
over 20 years ago and the manual had a section on assimbly
language AND there were these asteristics next to the instruction
names with a foot note that said that Intel was copyrighting
these words; words like "add", "sub" and so on.

Hi all.
I'm building a development webserver (redhat-based). I'm trying to compile
PHP (v4.3.4 if anyone cares) with all the features I might require in the
near future. I've ran into a
problem with trying to understand what all those ./configure options do.
Some of them are fairly straight forward and need no explanation at all, but
others are rather mysterious.
For example, --enable-magic-quotes . What are the magic quotes? The PHP

I have a Windows Service that often stops in its tracks with no
exception and no explanation on our QA system.
During testing on the development machine, it can handle any workload,
and complete with no problems. Even during testing on another test
machine, it can handle any workload, and complete with no problems.
This behavior has been tested multiple times.

Is there a decent explanation of how menu merging with MDI forms work in
VB.NET? I've read through the online help and it still seems that whenever
I change menus around or whatever, it breaks everything. VB6, as repetitive
as it was to retype menus, was at least consistent. It seems that VB.NET
throws menu items wherever it feels like.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
