That is, if you steer clear from the Metal L&F and can live with the fact that 10g always forgets the browser command line (even if you manually edit the configuration file, don't remember how it's called now). Otherwise, it's great, and considering Struts support, it's something like Struts Studio++, though I usually don't use the integrated modelers and do the UML work with Poseidon UML 2.0 at home. Still, probably the best allround Java IDE around.
Considering 'free': in my understanding, JDev is free for download (well...) and using it for an unlimited evaluation period. For production use, you must license it. That's ok, I think. Comes the price tag: IIRC, JDev 9i was sold for $ 995, including support. How will it be with 10g in this direction? Not that I'm directly affected, as we're Oracle Alliance partners and get the whole range of Oracle software anyway, but the price tag for the final version of 10g would still be interesting. Generally, it really would be helpful if Oracle could just say: using our products costs this per named user and that per CPU, and you get an x% rebate for ASFU licenses. But if Oracle says 'free', it should really be 'free' in the common understanding of the term, and not: free to download (never got charged for just downloading anything, IIRC) and evaluation. So better say: JDev costs $ xxxx, but we grant you a free, unlimited evalutation license period. This way round :-) Finally, I'll misuse the list for some JDev-related problem I couldn't find any solution for neither at OTN nor by consulting orionserver.com (noting that OTN searches are our last resort, as even UltraSearch seems to be always presenting the *least* relevant topics first, with a special knack for early 8.1.5 documentation). The problem is that we are currently porting a subproject from Sun ONE to JDev. Everything went well, but we still have a Bean factory that's accessed via JNDI. The general idea is that my developers should be able to to not just write their code in JDev, but also make use of its 'Run' or 'Debug' features. This means, everything has to run in the integrated OC4J container, of course. So my question is: how do you tell OC4J about additional JNDI resources available that are not DataSources (in Sun ONE | Tomcat, you do this via server.xml). We already found out that <appname>-oc4j-app.xml seems to be part of the solution, but adding the fitting <resource provider> entries there only led to 'type unknown' JNDI errors in the JSP stack trace. Yes, we even added everything feasible to /lib and system classpath. Do you possibly know a solution? Currently, the application still runs in Tomcat, and we debug it via log4j, ie. the 'old way'. Did cost us 3 man-days already, btw. -- Chris > Depends on your interpretation of the word open in this context, if > it's "Free to download and evaluate" then try Oracle JDeveloper 10g > Preview release http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev > If the definition is "Product that I will never, ever, ever have to > pay for" then ignore this. > > Regards > > Duncan Mills > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "virupaksha" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 9:48 AM > Subject: IDE > > > Dear All, > > I am working on struts using exadel struts studio, > Can any one know other open IDE for struts ..? > especially for designing View(Drag & drop approach..?) > > let me know please...... > > Regards, > viru > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
