David RE my post : ORCL is reselling JBuilder with ORCL additions that's my understanding.

and your reply:
I read it differently. I saw it as: Oracle is selling its own Java IDE product
(as-yet-unnamed) built on Borland's JBuilder codebase, which they have licensed.


Well I'm here in the Big Apple at FALL INTERNET WORLD and was shown a demo of the product. My statement stands - I was correct (Actually InfoWorld was correct!) .

It is the JBuilder IDE with a native ORCL driver + a couple of wizards that make building an app that connects to an ORACLE database a snap. The IDE is exactly the JBuilder IDE - the palette, the look and feel of Borland's products is all there. Really pretty neat. Got all the cool BORL features such as 2 way tools etc. Yes!!! (The product is called VALHALLA.)

Spoke to a knowledgeable ORCL person about the product. He felt BORL built the best tools (YES>>>>>).

Will be here for some time. Any one wants me to ask the BORL rep any questions?
