Re: About Oracle9iAS

Thanks. I understand that Oracle is a little bit weak in client applications,
esp. in Forms & Reports, not to mention Oracle Graphics. However, quite a lot of appls still run using Oracle Forms, e.g. Oracle Financials. That's why I need to learn this "tech", no matter I like it or not.

BTW, will it be tedious to use Java to design front-end forms? It seems to me that every object on the form need to be defined explicitly including the events, event listener, etc. Isn't it?

Just asking. Some other might think this is not the right place to discuss Java.

Thanks anyway.
