Prasanna-
To answer all three questions. VC is fairly lame for servlets.... no real
advantages or disadvantages. (I've used VC from day one). It has a servlet
wizard which just does the stubs (big deal).
To continue on the negative... it is a memory pig (what windows development
environment isn't?). Be sure to have 96mb-128mb of memory with a fast
processor (300 MHz and up).
On the positive side...
It does have nice integration with debugging servlets through calling the
HttpServer class so you can debug through your browser.
What I like in this version is you can configure it for different JVMs.
To me... the debugging integration with servlets is the biggest productivity
attribute. However, other IDE's offer similar features. For an IDE it
works.
However... Emacs works for me too :-)
Cheers,
John Kirby

Subject: VisualCafe3.0 for Servlet development
Hi,
I am developing a web based Database application with HTML FORM/
JavaScript and Java servlets at backend. The environment is NT-4 with SP4,
IIS4.0, Jrun 2.2.1(planning to upgrade to 2.3) and Oracle8. I am also
planning to use JSP. My company wants to make use of Visual Cafe for the
development. I have the following questions for people who are using Visula
Cafe 3.0 .
1. Apart from editing/compiling/debugging in IDE does it provide any other
advantages like automatic code generation for Servlets?. I.e. apart from
generating stubs for methods init(), service(), doPost() etc..
2. VisualCafe3.0 brochure says it supports servlet development. To what
extent does it help in development?.
3. Does it really speed up the development process?.
Thanks
Prasanna
