Whoops pointer-indirection error :-) Sorry

Oh, and Java relevates ease of combining third-party modules, and deployment automation. The key ingredient for this was Java's mere recommendation that namespaces be based on domain names, this allowed libraries to be combined without name conflicts; the other languages don't have this, and come with horrible linking problems that only make me sad.


Thanks for the input
I would have thought that SML would be the one which had the most sophisticated module-sublanguage.  Would be interested to know how SML and Java stack up against each other in that respect.
