Tommy I actually have my own persist framework... but just
having a quick

ie type
conversions can be a little tricky...
int and Integer are not the same thing in Java...
its going to be something like
int i = Integer.parseInt(TheThing);
I think...
same story for long... ie one is a primitive type and one
is a class... diff
mem structure but Java alsways has a slightly obscure

Have fun
Anyway, just wanted to make sure you knew VWP was there
Thanks, because of VWP (with table navigation/pagination and sort
features), that's why I stuck with Netbeans for my IDE :D. Only drawback
IMO with Netbeans is lack of various server support like Eclipse.
Yes, you see it in the NB user group as well... people running more than one
IDE... ie they just there to get at swing tools, or VWP, but they got their
JBOSS or whatever running in Eclipse, or something else.
I think running more than one IDE is now just a fact of life... and there
are two definite camps... you want swing, you go NB, you want to dev on
Android, it only works well in Eclipse... its more about allegiances than
technology, who's making what, and what tool are they into.
GlassFish is NB... most of the others are Eclipse... TC is pleasantly
neutral...
NB is good with TC, but works a little diff to Eclipse...
When it comes to dB tools on the web, I still do it the old way... make the
site in an HTML editor, do the JSP and use JDBC for the dB... the first time
is difficult, learning the MVC model in TC... after that I think its much
faster...
.... just check out VWP carefully... its a very heavy application of JSF..
and for a large site, it gets slow, very slow.
We use VWP, but we cannibalize it... ie if we need a tree in a web page, we
use the wizards... then open up the source and just extract the CSS, and
script ;)
How you use Java tools, is as much a skill as just learning the langauge
itself... I think ;)
NB 5.5 is a better product for TC dev, than NB 6 is... NB 6 is still very
very buggy... its got a little too fishy for my liking ;)
Why we only use TC and have put a tremendous amount of investment into
it.... its a no nonsense light weight container... it does what it does very
very well.
Master of the WEB and people understand it... as apposed to jack of all
trades, master of none... there is very little you cant make TC do... the
way we run TC, eats fish for breakfast ;)
Have fun...
