I bought JClass a couple of years ago. I really needed only one component (the date/time picker) and that's all I use. However, I spent a lot of time writing workarounds and helper classes for just that one component and even now two years later some of the problems still exist. I wasn't overly impressed with the quality and would not have spent the effort on it if there were another component library available that had the component I needed. It will save time, but be prepared for some finicky behaviour. One example I can think of off the top of my head is the inconsistent return type behaviour: if you select a date with the drop-down calendar, the value returned is of one type, but if you key the date in manually the return value is of a different type, and both types may be different from the type you declared the field to be in the first place. Very frustrating. -- Check out our latest white papers at http://www.datadevelopment.com/papers/index.html BladeNET Scores With Borland Enterprise Tools Team Development with JBuilder and Borland Enterprise Server Dolphin Data Development Ltd. http://www.datadevelopment.com/ "Avi" <aabrami@intersystemsww.com> wrote in message news:40ab12c4@newsgroups.borland.com... > > Our company is using (an older version of) the "JClass" GUI > library: > > http://www.quest.com/jclass > > I would like to know how many people are using this library. > I have looked through the "JClass" forums: > > http://qlist1.quest.com/read/all_forums/ > > but there is hardly any traffic there at all. > I would really appreciate any information regarding the > popularity of this library. > > Thanks (in advance for any help), > Avi. >
