Exactly! I'm still trying to set up OpenLaszlo. You have to get Eclipse... But NO WAIT!!! Not just the Eclipse bundle (the first mistake I made) but the WTP version (that's the web version). Then you need the java jdk, but the Sun website is mess with different downloads. Blinded by eager anticipation I downloaded what I thought was the JDK. NOPE! It was the java webserver... Dang! Then back to the site for JDK. Then the OpenLaszlo server couldn't find the JDK. Evidently my JAVA_HOME environmental variables weren't set. Um... Ok where do I do that at?!? After searching the forums I find out that the handy DOS prompt is the tool I was looking for... Arrrrrrgh!
Then I went to bed. I'll start again when after I have 7 more cups of coffee. So as Bryan notes having and integrated web development tool in RB would be nice... So very nice... ~joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bryan Lund Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2006 11:11 PM To: REALbasic NUG Subject: Re: OT: Web Applications Joseph J.

Well... not exactly. If you could write a simple web server and have it then be pretty easy to make it "do anything you'd do in Swordfish"... there wouldn't be any need at all for something like Swordfish. :) From my very, very minuscule understanding of what Swordfish is... it does much, much more. Ease of development, the web-based user interface, a good development toolset, etc... those are all things that don't come "pretty easy" by just having a web server. -Bryan _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
