Hi, all. As Sun's database architect for NetBeans, part of my role is to understand what database tooling features we should add to NetBeans to help make it a rad, awesome tool for developers using databases.
one general observation i have on this is that very tight tooling integration between IDEs and data-access is a missing bit of the jigsaw ATM. when i see developers grappling with data access issues, they have to cut bits of SQL from logs and then paste into an IDE. perhaps it might be possible to develop a monitor logging API which would allow interested tools to observe the SQL as it is being executed. this would be an ideal complement to being able to jump from a data access object to the mapped database tables etc within a debugger etc. - robert
