.V, I was working on Java until I became a manager. The discussion seems go to the direction of GUI vs. no GUI.
My intention was automating the coding process. In struts and EJB, lots of codes fit into patterns and can be automated. I was actually developing command line automation utilities to do that without GUI. Another example of good automation is Ant and NAnt that can automate routine build jobs and thus reduce the cost of software development. Money is the No. 1 factor for a owner/manager. Jack H.
