Hello,

I will be using BCB Builder Enterprise with Visibroker for an Internet
server application.  But on the client side, if you want to work inside
the Internet Explorer/Netscape browsers, it seems that Java is the way
to go (comments welcome).  The Visual Basic activer server page
(activeX) restricts you to Internet Explorer.  From what I have seen
some people are succeeding in writing Java code that works successfully
between both browsers(?)

Can anyone point me to a (reasonably) fair and comprehensive comparison
of the major Java Design Environments?  If not, I would appreciate any
comments, good and bad, you can offer regarding the Jave IDE you work
with ,and others you may have worked with.

The main contenders appear to be:

Borland JBuilder
Microsoft J++
IBM Visual Age
Symantec's Java Cafe.

Thanks,
Peter.
