i was reading that 'java sucks' link. i think your difficulty is that you have no idea what you are doing and/or do not understand oop at all. you were using a reference to a string, you were comparing memory locations. why did you expect the result to return true? and no, it is not different in C/C++, if you had used a reference to a String object in that language it would have done the same thing.
Hi, I am also running a survey involving OSS for a research project. If it is not too much trouble, please take the 3 or 4 minutes necessary to fill it out (its short, like 12 questions). the survey is one page, and is completely anonymous. I would really appreciate any feedback you may offer.

also, if anyone knows a good way to advertise this, let me know. i dont know if this is worthy to be on the front page of slashdot (and it would probably kill my unix account):)
thanks,
