Java Questions and Concerns
Hello ChiefDelphi! I have what is, hopefully, a quick question... or a few questions.
EDIT: Yes, I realize that the cRIO could have issue running Java SE which is why they use a variant of Java ME. A man who has been using Java SE for so long can hope we move past Java ME some day.
With the beta-testing of SmartDashboard 2.0 and its development, does this mean we will be getting JavaSE 7 in order to use JavaFX? That would be awesome in introducing the availability of Generics, a more commonly used Java Version, and a much more vast array of tools... like PROPER Enumerations.
On an unrelated note, is it legal to construct a library for use by a future team of programmers to provide extra Math Functions, Handlers, Helpers and so on to ease the learning process? Or is that within competition rules?
One more question if we will be allowed to use JavaSE 7.
Do you think we will be allowed to use the Reflection API? It is unlikely to be useful but if there is something I can do with it and it is available I will find it because Reflection can be AWESOME especially for a library (if that is within competition rules).
