Re: PROGRAMMERS: WIND RIVER C++ vs LABVIEW vs JAVA

Personally java seemed to be the best fit. Being my first year as a programmer it would be natural the the first would be my favorite. But after seeing our programmers constantly struggle with the labview software it makes sense to go back to text based programming because it has more real world applications. The only problem I had with java was the unclear documentation of classes. Sometimes it was difficult to understand what exactly parameters were asking for. Otherwise it was very easy to code, simple to troubleshoot, and a breeze to build and run.
