In my experience the standard API is terrible, inconsistent and frustrating. (Not that I'd use it anyway, the language itself is too limited).

If you don't like the language or its standard library you should not use Java. You should use the language that best fits you.

I happen to not like C++. So I don't use it. See? Easy.
