Re: Smart or not??????

We've used java our entire team history, so I'm all in favor of that.

The question is whether it's smart for you - the main thing to consider is your mentor and programming base. That is, if you have no mentors and only a few students who know labview at a basic level, but a mentor who knows java well and is willing to teach and work with you, absolutely switch. On the other hand, if you don't have a java mentor identified, the switch would likely be a disaster. Where along that spectrum does your team fall?
