ASP Classic and Java Cross Reference Guide
By Mike Prestwood
ASP Classic versus Java: A side by side comparison between ASP Classic and Java.
ASP Classic
Version: This content is based on ASP Classic 3.0 released November 2000. The focus of this content is on server-side scripting.
This content focuses on topics in common among the languages documented here so this content most likely applies to earlier versions.
In addition, much of the ASP syntax presented here is in common with MS Access and VB Classic. Finally, the syntax for VB.Net is based on VB so some of it even applies to VB.Net because ASP is also based on VB.
Java
Version: This content is based on jre1.6.0_07 and tested in Eclipse 3.3.2 and/or JBuilder 2008 (which is based on Eclipse 3.3).
This content focuses on topics in common among the languages documented here so nearly all this syntax applies to other Java development environments as well as earlier versions of Java.
Much of Java's syntax will look similar to both C++ and C# but with significant differences.
Note: To be clear, the subject of this information is generic Java and all code snippets were tested in either Eclipse or in JBuilder by CodeGear (or both). Although much of the information applies to other Java tools, we only verified the syntax and information within Eclipse or JBuilder.
