Hi Guys
We are to develop a tool which is going to be GUI intensive, with frames, panels, drag and drop options to connect or map various components. Aim is to create mapping between two data sources. One being a txt file and other being a DB2 database. May be via an excel file or XML file.
So we need to show easier models to display the data, mapping rules, mapping results, data conversion etc.
I don't think going with
J2EE web application using
struts will be a good choice looking at the GUI intensive work involved. Rather we can make a desktop swing application and keep multiple instances of it synchronized using
Java web start. Or may be use
applets?
I am not able to get a final say on this. Please suggest. Thanks in advance. (In case this post does not belong here, I am sorry for that please guide me where to post it)
