I use Webstart from Sun to launch Swing apps. It's free and works well.
You can use Eclipse to package your application into a jar file that can be distributed from your web server. Your users see icons on their desktops for each of your applications. All applications are loaded into the temporary internet files directory on each workstation.

Host a Swing-Menu application on our HP-Ux box such that Windows users can launch this Swing-Menu by clicking on a Windows desktop icon. The Swing-Menu would allow end-users to choose and launch Swing applications. Swing apps would be re-written green-screen legacy programs. I guess that this Eclipse (or NetBeans) project would have an EJB that would connect to the UniObjects proxy thing. Thus, the UniBasic business logic would reside on the same HP-Ux box. Most of the applications would be Swing-GUI, someday there would be Java-Web-Applets for off-site users. Of course, I do not yet have an entirely clear picture of how to make this work. Suggestions would be appreciated.

What do you mean by 'tools'? We use the JDK/JRE from HP. We're on 1.5.0.01 at the moment, from June 2005. There might be a newer one out there. In my experience, HP's JVM can be a little flaky, but no major problems. -- Wendy Smoak ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
