  12. I think the question is Free/Paid then opensource on Constructing a Corporate Open Source Policy? · · Score: 1

    I think the question is not whether open source or not, but it is about whether you want to use free software or not. My policy has been, if i have a tool which is assisting in coding, testing, deployment, and widely accepted and supported by other major vendors, then we can us that. A good example would be struts. IBM, Weblogic all support the standards. If i have to use tomcat to build a webapp which is smaller in size, i use it. I know i can deploy in weblogic in future. But again, if you want to use XDoclet for development, are you sure that it is going to be updated for next version of J2EE and next version of tags for your vendor app server ???? I doubt looking at their activity. So stay away. Or may be there is a way to reverse engineer generated code and it can be then used again. So use it. Confusing, but risk is what you play with. If you are using Operating Sytem like Suse or Linux, feel free to use it. Lot of mission critical software runs on it, and using a Enterprise Version is not at all a risk, as you can switch to other clones of it. If you want to build on top of Jboss, which has no major ide support and most of the time will crash and it is a critical system i assume you wont use it. All JBOSS supports please mod me down, i myself use jboss for some smaller projects :) And again, dont use some third party open source API which forms the major part of your critical application, and later found that it has errors... and you can't do anything with it.

  14. Re:A lesson from Microsoft on Sun and Eclipse Squabble · · Score: 1

    I think it would be good if IBM writes a better JVM which can provide same interface as swing but uses whatever they want beneath .. may be native libraries completely or not. But breaking the APIs itself which most of the people learned, and then asking java users to manage garbage collection in SWT is kind of foolish. And yes, with Hardware improvement every year, and JVM optimization and now with class sharing, there would be not much difference between Eclipse and NetBeans. So who is fooling who ??? And inspite of having eclipse based editor like WSAD, it works very very slow on my IBM t40 with one GB of RAM. again, eclipse is for short time ;)
