[MD1] JavaExpress: Help your career
From: Dave Wilson (dwilson@best.com) "Java(tm) Express" is a one-day seminar designed to teach people about Java while raising money for worthwhile SF Peninsula charities. It will take place on Saturday, November 8 at Apple's R&D campus in Cupertino, from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm.

"Java(tm) Express" will cover two major topics: (1) an overview of Java technical and business issues, and (2) writing Java applications and applets. Attendees will need to be familiar with the concepts of object-oriented programming but do not need to be experts. What if you are already a Java programming guru? Then perhaps this seminar is not for you. The seminar is targeted at the thousands...

October 5, 1997 -- New York, NY. -- DAS Works, maker of ListTable(TM), announces the release and shipment of Jovis(R) Version 1.0.4, an XCmd database engine, and the only fully scriptable database engine available for the Macintosh.

"Jovis is the best HyperCard/SuperCard-oriented database engine available today. It provides a fast and powerful solution where one is sorely needed." -Jeff Benjamin, StepUp Software, Inc.

[MD1] Microsoft's Java Compliance
We are forwarding this for you to see. This is not specifically an endorsement of the letter below nor of Microsoft's practices/policies -- it is for your information and for you to make up your own mind. If we are sent an equivalent letter to support Microsoft, we will distribute that as well. MacDev-1 Team ------------------- From: David Schargel, davids@aportis.com Dear friends, I am writing you this message to ask for action. A few short days ago, Microsoft released the final Win95/NT version of the Internet Explorer 4.0 web browser. This browser, as expected, does not contain an implementation of Java that is fully-compliant with the Java core platform. It may have a compatible JVM, but it does not contain the full class libraries of the JDK 1.1 implementations of Java. The omissions seem to be intentional. Let's be clear, IMHO Microsoft is deliberately trying to destroy the chance for Java to fulfill its "write once, run anywhere" promise. Java portability is the single...

From: MWRon@metrowerks.com (MW Ron) Subject: [ANN] Open CW C++ v2 Beta Test Version Warriors, Metrowerks had to make some hard decisions on the C++ compilers whether to add some C++ improvements this summer or to put all of our efforts into a new version of our C++ compilers.

These v2 tools include namespaces and fuller STL support.
