Hi,
I have been using Oracle JDeveloper for about 8 months now.It is a pretty good IDE, and is built on JBuilder Technology.I have heard that some things are easier to be done using JDeveloper rather than JBuilder.
Also JDeveloper comes with some very good integrations with Oracle DB,Oracle Application Server.It has inherent support for JSP/Servlet Debugging,
EJB Debugging, Java Stored Procedures(incidentally it was the first IDE to support it!!!), Corba IDL,Data Web Beans,DAC (Oracle Infobus API support), and many other features.
Apart from this,it has a beautiful technology in place called "Business Components with Java", which makes life so much easier for implementing/debugging Enterprise Application.It is a Java XML solution, which allows you to do validation in the second tier itself, before posting the data to the DB.Once you get used to it, you would feel EJB is a big burden!!
However, I would personally like to see Oracle supporting major e-business products in the future.
This product is available for free download at
