Sun Java Studio Enterprise 8.1
I have an application developed with Forte For Java. Since Forte for java is no longer supported by Sun, I'd like to create a new project with Sun Java Studio Enterprise and migrate the existing java files into the new project so that I can debug and compile with Sun Java Studio Enterprise. Can anybody give some suggestions on how to do this? Or, could anybody tell me where to find a tutorial about Sun Java Studio Enterprise? I found a tutorial here: http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jsenterprise/learning/tutorials/index.jsp , but it is only for creating a new project from scratch with UML modeling feature. This doesn't seem to be very helpful for my situation. Thank you!
I installed Sun Java Studio but I couldn't find the option allowing me to create a new project from scratch. In New Project dialog, there are four options: Standard, UML, Web, Samples. When I select Standard, the description says "Imports an existing Java application into a free-form IDE project. A free-form project uses your existing Ant build script to run, compile, and debug your project." I know I can use the option UML to create a new project with assistance of UML model diagram, but this is not what I want.
Does anybody have suggestions on this? Thanks in advance.
try file->new project...
I'm sure the manual will mention something that's right there at the top of your menus...
Of course that's only after you actually get the thing started, which might take 5-10 minutes of looking at the startup screen on even a decently fast (2.4GHz) machine with loads of memory.
If an IDE is slow at loading it is mostly because there's a huge cache, of local version control files maintained by the IDE.
At least that is how it is with Intelli J IDEA. Once I clear the cache of files, things load pretty quickly. This may not be the case with other IDEs though.
Instead of Sun Studio you could also go with Net Beans , I guess they're almost identical, I haven't used either so I can't tell the difference well.
uh, it takes that long to load every time, even the first time after installation...SES uses Netbeans at the core, but adds a set of plugins for EJB development and related technologies.
