What Is The Difference Between Java And .net?

Java is basically a programming language which is designed to run on multi-platforms. Java makes use of a common language which can be compiled and run on different platforms like windows, mac and Linux.

On the other hand, .NET allows you to program in any language you wish, however, it uses compilers for different languages so that a platform specific code is generated.

Thus, the basic difference between Java and .NET is that Java can be used for writing programs for different operating systems whereas .NET can be used for making any programming language into a Windows Program

Both Java and .NET have their own advantages and disadvantages and are used for different purposes.

NET and Java are incomparable guided by the fact that .NET is a framework or simply a platform of presently 43 (approximately) programming languages,where as Java is a programming language.

Java is platform independent on the other hand .NET is language independent ie applications written in any programming language supported by .NET framework can be converted to any other language supported by the framework.(languages supported are VB.NET,C#.NET,J#.NET etc)

Java Is now open Source where as .Net is not

and My personal Opinion

java Is easy and beautiful, but .Net is Ugly and highly Abstract...


Hope It Helps!

Java is a site where you could get games and other things.. A net is your internet co...Take care.
