JBuilder2007\SwingComponents

[Jeff]

I am using JBuilder 2007 and don' t see any swing components, in the
IDE, to drag and drop. Is this not a feature, in JBuilder 2007?

TIA

JBuilder 2007 comes with Visual Editor that is part of Eclipse 3.2
distribution.

You have to create "visual" class like Frame, Dialog or panel and then
open that class with Visual Editor.

VE "supports" both Swing and SWT.

I hope that CodeGear will finally see that VE is really joke and is
useless for serious development at least from what I tested with it and
will provide some real RAD development tool like what we are used to in
JBuilder 2006.

I use Delphi, but am trying to move to JBuilder. I used JBuilder 2005
and the IDE, to me, was a lot like the Delphi IDE as far as components
went. Looks Like I need to move back to JBuilder 2005 or 2006 to get
this feature or use netbeans 6.0.

I also come from Delphi and for me JBuilder IDE prior 2007 was very easy
to use.

Now I use 2007 only for experimenting with EJB 3 and for it's UML support.

I still use JB 2006 as my primary IDE for EJB 2 and Swing development.
