Hi all,
having been using delphi and C++ tools for many years, now we need to
migrate the application to Java and preferrable web based.
now I am facing 2 questions:
1, unlike the delphi, I found that I can't create a new form and put my J
controls on it, I am using Jbuilder 2006. can someone help me show where the
step is to create a main form and put the different controls on it?

2, after the form has been created with the Jbuilder, can this application
be easily posted to the web so user can see the same results from the IE? I
noticed that visual studio can do the same thing, so just wonder if JBuilder
can do it.

thank you very much

kind regards

David

JBuilder 2006 has a visual designer. Look under "File | New | General"
and you'll find you can create frames, dialogs, panels, and more.

In particular, go to the online help and look at the chapter "Designing
applications" in the "Building Applications" book. Whatever else you do,
take the time to learn how to use GridBagLayout and avoid XYLayout at all
costs.

Yes, through Java Web Start. Documentation is here:
http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/

You can create a JWS file through "File | New | Web | Web Start Launcher".
