Title: RE: Kawa

I found both to be nice but slow (the latter probably due to inefficient Swing in the JDK 1.2.1 of the time) and to contain serious memory leaks (also at least in part due to bugs in JDK 1.2.1).

A couple of good, free Java based text editors are jext and jedit.  I don't have the current web sites.

What is anyone using on Linux for Java development? I would like to use ANT and a Java based text editor (syntax color hightlighting, multi-tab windows for quick access, and tree-view of project (or file structure). Infact, I use UltraEdit32 right now which does the job for me since I do server-side for web development. I would also possibly like an output window that displays errors so I can dbl-click on them and move to the file/line of the problem, as well as a method list when a class is selected, to jump to a specific method in a class.

 

Thanks.

I have 5.0 Ent as well. I have not tried to debug with it. But when I have time I will give it a shot and report it to the list.

As far as I know, the debugger is the same in KAWA 4.0, 5.0Pro and 5.0Ent. 5.0Ent integreates with some EJB tools.

So the same debug setup should work as well. This is the original posting from Dave Smith. (Kawa version mentioned is 4.0Pro)

Dave Smith adds:
"Debugging with Orion and Kawa is a pleasure."

Get Kawa Pro (not the enterprise version) from Tek-Tools and install it. Configure your JDK as required when you first run Kawa. (Note that Kawa is a Win32 application, which is one of the reasons I don't use it.)

Create a new project for your servlets or EJBs. Add orion.jar, any additional jars required by the application, and the deployed class directory (i.e., c:\applications\myApp\myApp-web\WEB-INF\classes or c:\applications\myApp\myApp-ejb, or both).

From the Project/Interpreter menu, set the Java class to run to com.evermind.server.ApplicationServer and remember to tell it to use this class (as this image, given me by Chris Miller, shows). Turn off JVMDI debugger from the Customize/Options/Advanced Paths form, which is for performance only and is not vital.

Add the breakpoints to your servlets and/or EJBs. F5 starts debugging, and Dave adds to "Relax, sit back and enjoy the ride. The speed kills NetBeans dead."

Also from Dave: For a real screamer, use Jikes:

Customize/Options/Advanced Paths/Compiler = D:\jikes\jikes.exe +E
And set Orion to use jikes from $ORION/server.xml.

My experience as well.  I also found that a number of features didn't really
work yet.  I'm holding out for v5.1.

Yesterday, I download the Kawa 5.0 Entreprise from Allaire site
and I didn't find any "out-of-the-box" support for
Orion; Only Weblogic, Jrun and J2ee-ri;

Perhaps on the web page they talk about a future version !?

Maybe some of you are interested to find out that Kawa 5.0 Enterprise from
Allaire has out-of-the-box support for Orion deployment. Check this out:
