WDSC is easy once you understand a little about creating and running a
Java class or Java application. Took me over a year to get really comfy.
For a basic Java class, simply create a Java project, create a new class
and then "Run as Application" and output to the console.
Keep banging on it, it does get better.
We're actually now writing a lot of native Java applications that are
wrapped with CL program and command callers so they are Native commands.
Very cool stuff.

subject: [WEB400] JAVA coding environment
I hope this is the best place for this post. I debated between here and
PC-Tech.
My frustration level has been reached trying to use WDSC as a JAVA
development environment. Yesterday I spent many hours trying to test a
simple 'hello world' applet that took two minutes to code. I need
something simpler.
For those of you doing JAVA development, what development environments
do you use?
Here are my needs as I think I understand them today:
1) Learn the JAVA language
2) Gain an understanding of OO concepts
3) Understand applets and the use of java script in web pages
4) Ultimately understand the role of JAVA in web services so when WDSC
builds a service I know what all the JAVA pieces are doing.
5) Possible write the web service pieces from scratch.
