A new competitor on the block. Sun announced today: "Java Modeler - a multi-user analysis and design tool that can automate and extract object designs from existing Java source code. Based on an industry standard graphical methodology (the Unified Modeling Language), the Java Modeler tool provides an open environment for brainstorming and application design, along with a documented application programming interface (API) to allow the application to drive and be driven by third party tools and applications. The beta version of Java Modeler will be available this summer for trial. Java Modeler will ship in Q4 1998." Which indicates that the big players also want a part of the market for modeling tools. /Hans-Erik
