Programming Language

It may just be my imagination but some of the code that was posted in a preview thread looked like C# to me. Of course, for the Mac this wouldn't work (unless the Mono Framework was pre-installed, and even then..)

My query was really what programming language are you using? I'm guessing Java but I couldn't 100% confirm this from what I had read, though it does seem likely.

Just idle curiosity

EDIT: Meh answered my own question; seems it is.

Considering the framework they plan to use is coded in Java, it multi-platform shouldn't be a problem

The code located in this thread is indeed Java. I can tell by the syntax.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't java based on C or C++ or C# or something?

If I recall correctly, the official "Sun" java as well as most of the open JDKs are written in C. I may be wrong though.

C# is Microsofts baby and borrows so heavily from Java, that if you know one, you, you know them both.

I believe the official sun JRE is written in C++, as the Java Native Interface (JNI) is very C++ish. I believe they use the same interface for their JRE.

JNI=evil... please don't ever remind me of having to use that again.
