Are those who are using Java using it on the client or server? (or both?)

Replacing it with C# here. It never really lived up to the hype. C# in it's first incarnation is better than Java today.

Server Side Java is more than ENOUGH, dont let it come to client side

I've heard wonderful stories about cross-platform existence of server-side stuff in written in Java. But, I've heard no stories (good or bad) about heavy UI stuff written in Java.
The only experience I had with this was my UI design class. All code was in Java (Swing specifically, which I like for design reasons). Oddly enough, in academia we're always told of the wonderful cross-platform Goodness of Java, but in this class we were told "make sure you debug your app on a Sun Sparcstation, because that's what it will be graded on". Makes me think that UI stuff isn't nearly as cross-platform.
Do you have any experience with this?

MFC, BEA Tuxedo, Informix - Nice combination.

Platforms/Products:
1. Win as a UI front end (as a native client or web client) (first tier)
2. WinNT as a distribution point of UI front end via Citrix ICA (second tier)
3. Tuxedo/XMA destributed transaction manager as a transport/transaction layer (third tier)
4. ORACLE as a query enabled persistent storage (fourth tier )
Languages/Libraries:
1. C/C++ MFC STL Win32 as UI front end
2. Citrix ICA. Destinations are native Win client or a Web Browser
3. C++/STL/Tuxedo as transport layer and distributed business logic
4. C/C++/DAO-OCI as a query enabled persistent storage
Happy coding,

I have two things on the go, in one I am using ATL and ADO ( hi, guys !! ), the other I am doing the gui classes in a Win32/OpenGL app that exposes a python interface, so I am writing classes in Win32 and in python and linking them up, so I can create the GUI from my console using python, and set up events by deriving python classes from the base classes I have written. I'm having so much fun I feel guilty on payday !!!!

I am also working with Java and JSP. Although I am not currently working with EJB, just Java Beans, I believe it is coming soon.

PHP, MySQL.
This is my first attempt at this combination, so far so good. Although I would perfer ASP and SQL Server.

Any good/bad/ugly stories to share? What's the development environment like?

The dev environment is vi. Basically, it sucks.

Why don't you develop with Apache/PHP on NT or 2000? Use the editor of choice (like ConTEXT) or one of the PHP IDEs that are emerging (although I hate their open source Delhpi editor control).
When finished, test it on a Linux box or your webhost.
Works for me...

In addition to C++/Windows/MFC/ASP/etc., I also work with Ada 95, real-time, concurrent, safety-critical software development.

George, I feel for you. I do ADA development ( see post above ). However, that safety critical stuff is crap. Just try finding the following code embedded in 100K LOC after several calls to the compiler developers for help:
function ">" ( L,R : in A_Package.Our_Real_Type )
return BOOLEAN renames A_Package.">=";
This is a real example and wasted about 3 weeks of 4 developers time.
BTW, that code was really Ada83 and I am aware of 'use type' in Ada95 and am swapping out renames as quick as I can find them.

Do I read this ight? Did they replace the ">" for their "own" real type with ">=" ?????
I dion't Ada, but I fel your pain

I believe that the mistake happened when an algorithm was rewritten. The original code used <= to test for the exit condition on a loop. The code was changed to use a > test for readability. When the rename that exposed the function to the package was edited, the coder changed the < to > but overlooked the =
That is what I mean when I say that Ada is not nearly as safe as people (read US Government) would like us to believe.
