Hi Syed

1. I guess RAD is "Rapid Application Development". There are RAD facilities in NetBeans for building the user interface. Both NetBeans and Eclipse use a "project" approach: related sources are grouped as a "project" with a unique classpath root. However, it is possible to reference other (external to the project) libraries (in other terms: to adjust your classpath). More precisions would need a more detailed description of your environment. Anyway, it is largely easier to use a tool like NetBeans (or Eclipse, but Eclipse needs a longer training) than to make it directly with vi and javac.

2. It depends how you represent the time. You can do it using standard library classes, like java.util.Date or java.util.Calendar. In both cases the time (year, month, and so on up to milliseconds) is stored as a long integer. You can get it and use for comparing long integers. Alternatively, you can store the time as strings, such as "123050002" for 12h30m50s and 2ms, or rightly "12:30:50.002". You can compare strings to find which one is greater.

3. Join the javapassion training. There are interesting things to discover, including the use of NetBeans.

Hope it helps

Hello friends-
I have two questions to pose. And I hope that someone with enough JAVA under their belt can help me here.. 1. I maintain, compile, write, debug etc JAVA code on a z/Linux server. I would like to start using RAD or NetBeans. Does anyone have any experience using RAD or NetBeans? If so, how do I import classpaths, etc within these environment to be able to effectively start using them? 2. Is ther any callable tool within JAVA to compare a constant, such as time in hhmmssmm, with a range of time ? So if it falls in a given range, I fall through and do my next set of logic. I could do an If, Then, Else compare but can anyone think of any slick way of doing this ? Any HELP will be GREATLY appreciated!!!! Thanks!!
