Which "IDE" for Suse Linux?

1999-07-07 Thread Alexander Schatten

Netbeans, and heard something about Kaffe? can someone give me more
hints?

Re: Has Sun Overstretch Themselves With So Many APIs?

1999-07-08 Thread Alexander Schatten

I guess this is a necessary policy. If sun would not offer JDBC 2,  3D api, RMI,
... these technology would be developed from a third party as they are demanded.
the consequence would be a drifting of Java to a lot of different systems. then
you could finally forget the write once run everywhere strategy, which has
enough problems right now.

btw. I am quite happy about that, as the sun components are of high quality as
far as I see it. I guess everybody who tried the horrible components from KGroup
(JBuilder 1) e.g. table and compares them with Swing tables will understand
this.

Problems with Emacs/JDE

1999-07-10 Thread Alexander Schatten

whew, I just started the move from windows to Linux and try to work like a true man 
;-) using
xemacs and JDE.

well the first steps were o.k., I even mastered installing the JDK 1.2 with mySQL JDBC 
driver,
but now I have some configuration problems with xemacs and JDE I cannot solve. would 
be great if
someone is able to share his or her experiences. The problems are in detail:

(1) Problems with automatical identation
(2) Abbreviations with JDE
(3) "Find braces"

ad 1)
when I have some identation like:
for (int i=1; (i<10); i++) {
  System.out.println("" + i); // when I press enter here I want the next line to 
start
  // automatically here and not
// here
}

is this description clear?


ad 2)
reading the JDE help file, there should be the possibility of abbreviations, so when I 
type:

pub JDE should finish this to public or the like

I enabled the function in JDE config like described in the help, but the abbrev. 
function simpy
does not work. any idea?

ad 3)
A really important function for me is to find the fitting braces, e.g. in the upper 
code
example, when the cursor is on the last } there should be a function to show/jump to 
the upper {
brace.


so these are really lots of questions.

probably some of you are so kind and could help me yet beeing a Linux dummy...


thanx in advance


Alex

yes, thank you, I know this function, but I find it not very comfortable to do so;
I´d really like some automatical identation that makes the same, but without
always having to press the tab key.

thanx

I guess this is exactly the point.

DB2, Linux & Java Experiences

1999-07-22 Thread Alexander Schatten

I am searching for a database for my new project. now there are really a
lot of RDBMS systems for Linux (nearly too much!). at the moment I am
playing with mySQL, which is nice, simple, but lacks some functionality:
foreign keys, first of all. PostgreSQL seems to have other problems, now
there are certain commercial systems, that should be free for
non-commercial use.

I have not worked with Oracle yet, and what I read about Oracle, the
installation/administration seems to be really a heavy task, and I have
no time for much learning at the moment ( the RDBMS is only a small part
of the project).

So I thought about DB2.

has someone experiences with DB2 and

-- installation
-- administration
-- JDBC
-- connection to Access / ODBC

is it hard to enter the DB2 world?

happy about any comments!

alex
