Hi:
JBuilder3 is ok. I has some serious(IMHO) shortcomings. I will
enumerate:
1. No GUI way to define JTable data model or other JTable helper classes
such as TableHeader or ColumnModel
2. No GUI way to modify tab labels in a JTabbedPane.
3. No GUI way to add icons to buttons etc.
These shortcomings may be overcome by modifying the code directly but
that kind of defeats the purpose of a visual design tool. NetBeans has GUIs
for icon assignment and table properties.
