string and integer literals are in the language specification. The key point
behind this statement is to distinguish the language from the APIs.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

What he said was pretty much equivalent to "You could write code, but it
would be useless code". It really doesn't matter if he phrased it in a way
that taken literally implies that your useless code could have some things in it
that the actual useless code you could write can't have.
And what he said would be true if you interpret his answer as "If Java did
not have any of the APIs other than the ones that are required by the Language
Specification such as java.lang.Object and Java.lang.String, even if it did have
those absolutely necessary APIs, you still could not do anything useful, and
that's why Java has all those other APIs."[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
