I just bought the 2.0.1 JBuilder to be able to use Java 1.2, because Sun
offically released 1.2.  I installed JBuilder 2.0.1 and the latest
version of Java 1.2.

The official release version of JDK 1.2 (Java 2) has changed the path
com.sun.java to javax. Okay. I change the "import com.sun.java..." to
"import javax..." in about 70 of my files and recompile.  The compile
fails because the JDK no longer includes the Windows or Motif look and
feel. Okay. I change it to the Metal look and feel. And everything
compiles.

However, the program which used to run without error in jdk1.1.6_Borland
now generates lots of exceptions.  JBuilder does not support debugging
of Java 1.2, so I have no way of stepping through the code to find out
what is broke.

The situation gets worse.  I go into the JBuilder Designer and find that
my JFrame is now a large red rectangle.  Further, it does not allow any
attributes to be changed, nor allows any subcomponent beans to have
their attributes changed. Nor are any of the subcomponents visible.

JBuilder is a good product and Sun has sort of pulled the rug out from
under Inprise (and me). I sure hope Inprise can help out the above
problems quickly (yesterday would be quick enough :-)
