Re: [FW-1] Why not produce the GUIs in Java
I have to disagree -- the METAIP gui is written
in a JAVA version, and a WIN32 version.
The WIN32 version is much more responsive than the
JAVA. The Java one is extremely slow, and does not
always respond to your keystrokes. I'll hit the +
key to expand a branch, and it will close the entire
tree.
I have other software written in both JAVA and WIN32.
In every case, I use the WIN32 version. Although
I have nothing against a JAVA version, please don't
make me use it.
When selecting between software written in JAVA and
software written in WIN32 (C++, VB, etc) I will always
choice the later.
IBM has decided to write all their new code in JAVA.
Client Access Operations Navigator is an example -- and
boy does the GUI suck. It locks up, and is also very
slow. This also holds true for some E-Mail management
software recently I looked at from a nameless company.
We will not go with their software.
Just my opinion;
Edwin Davidson

Subject: [FW-1] Why not produce the GUIs in Java
like for instance Citrix has done which their MetaFrame XP. Then Checkpoint could
concentrate on making one version for all platforms and the GUIs, which is an
important part of the product would become truly multiplatform.
