> interestingly if it works on your machine it'll work on other machines also so that's always nice
interestingly?
What kind of retarded languages have you dealt with where this doesn’t hold?
EDIT: Nevermind, I remeber python -
jestdotty547398d@Lensflare my specialty after java was JavaScript which I put on both browsers and differently operating system'ed servers so that tended to have compatibility issues
I mean I guess java advertised that it had a virtual machine and worked everywhere. the install process was also simpler.
I remember one time we had a windows server hosted on AWS and the C drive windows was on had like 3 gigs of room left. can't remember if it was 10 gb total or 30 gb. at any rate windows big OS at the time suddenly because they started bloating shit
well I needed to install node.js on this machine and node.js needed node-gyp to compile things and node-gyp apparently needed visual studio to be installed... which was too big. there was no other way to pull in the ability to compile on windows otherwise
second problem? visual studio didn't allow you to choose to install it anywhere but the C drive.
I ended up symlinking the folder it wanted to install to a different drive. stupid shit.
java

I have used this to generate code
I try to use this to generate code again for a new class
it doesn't work, doesn't generate anything, can't tell what's different outside of new class being in a test package
thanks obama
yes i'm too retarded to figure out the problem from googling and trying to read some documentation
