Support single and double quoted strings in Apex code
It's a major development annoyance that double quotes (") cannot be used for string values in Apex. It is not only inconsistent with other similar languages (Java, C#, etc) but is also inconsistent with other force.com technology like VF pages and formula fields.
This makes it annoying for developers when context switching between other languages and Apex.
It would be great if Apex could support both single and double quotes for strings like JavaScript does.

It also makes porting existing Java code over more difficult. Granted its a global search and replace; however, its one more step. |
