Google could use in future Apple programming language Swift for Android. With the new language the developer Java would turn his back and takes account of the open source nature of Swift no royalties to pay Apple.
Android and iOS could be similar in the future - at least as regards the programming languages used. If you believe a recent report from TheNextWeb, then there is Google currently serious thought to use the Apple developer language Swift in future also for Android. Initial discussions this should have already performed with renowned app developers such as Facebook and Google Uber.
Google is relentlessly pragmatic
Behind the considerations seems it stuck to merciless pragmatism. After all, Swift has already proven
itself as a programming language for apps on iOS. however, probably much more important to weigh the fact that Swift is officially open source since last summer and can be practically used by any programmer without paying royalties.
Especially this point is likely to be relevant to Google. After all, there is the group for years in a legal dispute with Oracle, its Java programming language is used to date for Android. It concerns the allegation of license infringement by Google. Oracle calls from the Android developers billions of dollars in damages.
Switching from Java to Swift would be complicated but rewarding
A change from Java to Swift would for Google and app developers, however, not a walk. So would Android apps will probably rewritten in the new programming. The operating system itself would have to be maintained for a long time support for both languages, there would certainly not be assumed that even comes close all apps are immediately rewritten in Swift.
In the long run could be a switch to Swift, however, make things for programmers much easier. After all, apps for Android and iOS would then be written directly to the same language. However, Swift is not the only candidate of a new programming language that is currently envisaged of Google. So to be a potential candidate for future Android apps also Kotlin language.
