Say you have an application in either .net or java (web application).
How long did it take you to port the application to the other platform? (I am assuming they general design was the same, just a straight port i.e. not changing the general design pattern radically).
What I am interested in:
It took me 4 months to code it in .net, and the port took 2 months.
What I am after is, is it realistic to think it will take longer, or shorter?
If you code something once, I’d always guess that the second time around would either be shorter or take about the same time, as long as you knew both languages equally well. I’m assuming that you’ve learned all the necessary lessons when coding it the first time, and you weren’t learning a new language the second time around.
