Re: JBuilder 2007



Presumably, some people think the open source modeling and
architecture stuff is crap. Those types might be the ones that
Borland is addressing with JBuilder 2007.

Sun Java Studio Enterprise (or NetBeans + Enterprise Pack)
Oracle JDeveloper

Have you used them?
Have you seen how much they cost? [Hint: Nothing]

I dunno how good JBuilder 2007 is (most probably really good), but JSE
had some of the best UML support available in a Java IDE. It was the
first commercial IDE to integrate team collaboration features into the IDE,
back in version 7'ish. Oracle JDeveloper was not far behind in the UML
department, but has better support for Web Development (Sun has Studio
Creator for that) and better refactoring support.

Both IDEs support multiple Application Servers.

For users who prefer to use an Eclipse base (and not JSE/NB or JDev),
there is MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench (http://www.myeclipseide.com)
for $29.95 a years. However, I will agree that JBuilder brings some nice
features to the Eclipse platform, like their collaboration, etc. Then
again,
I'm not sure what is in IBM's offering, cause it's so expensive that I never
cared to look at it.

You see, the problem is that Java is oversaturated with free/cheap
solutions.
