Java Static Analysis And Custom Bug Detectors
An anonymous reader writes "Java static analysis and custom bug detectors can be a very cost-effective way to improve software quality. By creating a detector for a known bug pattern, we can search for that bug pattern not only in the current code base for a specific project, but in any project, current or future. This article looks at how static analysis tools can change the way you manage software quality."
You've clearly never ever developed anything in Java before. Perhaps you've heard the saying "Do not hold strong opinions about things you do not understand"... I've been developing a fairly large Java application for over 5 years, and the old beta versions that were written for Java 1.3 work unmodified on the Java 1.6 beta.
Your statement is 100% false, face it.
