Java is beautiful but it sucks when people try to write gui apps with it and they realise its anything but pretty from the other side of the code.

I like the syntax or .NET except that its std microsoft formatiing.
If they plan on selling their IDE to everyone who seriously uses their Custom .NET languages, why don't they make the specifications handy for the IDE environment?

Java was nice in that, with code completion, typing get* and hitting the complete keys would bring up all accessors. C# retains "get" and "set" procedures, but they are accessed in the class by the variable name.

What i really see lacking (at least for larger, app classes) is a way to section off functions into macro-like subgroups, so that methods can be compartmentalised. This would make learning, remembering and programming the API/Frameworks one hell of a lot easier:
IE
Code: Show/Hide

public class Foo : Frame{
group FooGroup:
public void resize(int w,int h)...
group default:
public bool compareTo(object o)...
}


am i crazy, or does this make OOP sense for the programmer?

another thing (this is a rant after all).
where can i find a good text/lesson on the actual mechanics of programming IE what exactly an object/function/var are in memory?

i can't even spare a coherent thought tonight...
