Hi, Thanks to all for the info on this subject.. Would be grateful for some more : 1. Does netbeans ide have any reporting tool also ? like oracle reports or crystal reports 2. Consider a traditional client server application having complex user interface requirements plus intensive database interactions in the form of forms and reports like typical inventory or payroll applications. Does the jsp/servlet/beans technologies support development of such gui's/reports?
I have to build applications which are rich in such functionalities and should also be platform database/independent - at the same time the maintanence should be simple( in terms of deployment). As far as maintanance etc is concerned having web solutions with Servlet/JSP's etc seems to be a good solution but I am not sure whether complex gui's can be build. Also I would like to go for a open source technology. Looking forward for more suggestions for the same Thanks Nihita ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeremy Whitlock" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Tomcat Users List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 7:20 AM Subject: RE: Development Tools > I agree with Mike.
