I've not had any experience with JBuilder so I can't speak to it. However I have been using WSAD for the past few months.
We have two developers who split the application basically in half. One does the presentation layer and the other the model layer. We built a prototype of the application and from that an initial struts-config.xml file. Using the config file the presentation developer builds the pages and all necessary struts components. Meanwhile the model developer builds a business object that returns dummy data. This gives the presentation developer something to target. Then the model developer completes the SQL necessary for this object and tests it using various homegrown test classes. Once it is working the dummy data is removed the actual database methods are put into place. So far this parallel development "method" is working. Overlap between the two developers is minimized easing conflicts in source control. By having dummy data ready almost at once the presentation developer can work without waiting for the model to be completed. As for WSAD... it is large, cumbersome, slow, memory intensive, and occasionally pretty cool. Hope this was helpful, mark n. >From: "Soomar, Muki (R.)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Struts-User (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Using IDE -JBuilder5 or WSAD >Date: Wed, 15 May 2002 16:26:21 -0400 > >Does anyone have a methodology for doing development work using IDEs like >JBuilder5 or WSAD.
