Crashes in strlen - Dave Yost

This is a product that (a) can damage storage, and (b) does disk I/O. Both of these criteria imply that it should be written in Java and not C, C++, or Objective-C. Why? Because Java makes it much harder for bugs like this to exist (a), and because Java is plenty fast enough for this kind of work (b). Java is what is known as a "safe" language because it eliminates whole classes of bugs, things like arrays going off the end, pointers pointing where they shouldn't and then being used to clobber something, things being freed that shoudn't be freed, etc.
