Why is it not possible to break out of an if statement? @MichaelIT yes that would work just as well. moreover, good compiler with optimization should be able to deduct that looping is actually unnecessary. |

Why is it not possible to break out of an if statement? you could wrap your if statements into a for loop that executes exactly one time. then you could use break to get out of if statements. |

What should my license contain for a medical-related app? Can't he just put a standard statement that the software is provided "as is.." that is available in almost any open-source license? |

Finding developers for collaboration in enterprise open-source project I am still confused about what you mean. My project is open-source, it's published on Github where all information about it is available and website is on its way. Do you say that I should post information about it here or what? |

Finding developers for collaboration in enterprise open-source project Why? I specifically omitted all details about what exactly my projects is, what technology I use because my question is not just specifically about my project but about a range of projects (enterprise, small users base, non-IT customers) that I described in the question. |

Finding developers for collaboration in enterprise open-source project I don't understand who you mean by others? Target audience, peer developers? I am not asking help with project marketing, I try to understand where would developers come from to the kind of project I described. |

How will the new development of Java influence its interoperability with languages like Scala and Clojure? @Giorgio, He just speaks in favor of 'function types', however that's all there is to it. The current draft of the Lambda project clearly states that a lambda is an object, and I think they have already passed the point, when this statement could still be subject to a change. |

How will the new development of Java influence its interoperability with languages like Scala and Clojure? @Giorgio, also if you want to know more about lambda-related changes in Java 8 and forces that drive these changes, I recommend you to read this fascinating and detailed overview of the Lambda project. |

How will the new development of Java influence its interoperability with languages like Scala and Clojure? @Giorgio In Java 8 a lambda expression is a language-level shortcut to create an instance of interface that declares a single method and which is deferred by context. So when a Java 8 method returns a lambda, it actually returns an instance of interface which is declared as the method's return type. As of Scala 2.9.1, the return type is going to be simply an instance of some interface say (Runnable or Comparator) which you can not treat as a Scala lambda, unless you or future releases of Scala libary introduce an implicit conversion from that interface to Scala lambda type. |

Is it possible to compile Java into machine code? (Not bytecode) You can force "os.name" system property by using special arguments for JVM: java -Dos.name=MacOS. |

Should package names be singular or plural? The very link you provided shows an exception to this rule. beans is plural, however java.beans contains all kind classes related to JavaBeans. |

What came first, the compiler, or the source? @Konrad, this actually a matter of definition. With your definition, my answer is wrong, with mine - yours. |

Should I make my project free software? @EIYusubov What kind of trial/evaluation do you mean, if the option 3 is to go open/free? |

What came first, the compiler, or the source? @David I am new here. I might be wrong. But I feel like questions that are preferred as those that require synthesizing information from different sources. Cross posting Wikipedia just engages people to be lazy and to ask simplest questions instead of doing research. |

What came first, the compiler, or the source? @David Honestly, it will take you 3-5 minutes to find the answers to your questions in Wikipedia by just googling them. I don't see any reasons for copying Wikipedia here. |

What came first, the compiler, or the source? @IAbstract Binary still can not be source code by definition for it's not compiled for some target platform. It's directly executed by the target platform. |

What came first, the compiler, or the source? @Joachim By definition, source code is human-readable text that is translated by the compiler into machine code. Machine code itself therefore is not source code. |

Should I make my project free software? Thanks for answer! If publishing is not enough to attract to developers, what is the right way to do it? |
