Just wondering if J2EE development is the leader in Enterprise applications today and if so how long do you think it will hold this position?(how fast is .net catching up?)
Thanks,
Chad
Hi Scot:
Sorry about my first post to this discussion forum. I recently started a J2EE course in Madison WI. One topic that was discussed was the debate of what to use for database access. We're going with JDBC -although we were told that JDBC is not the best way yet; that there is still a battle to see who ends up with the win in this area.
Any thoughts on this? (Sorry if this topic is to general)

I've noticed that several people have been posting "this vs. that" style questions. I suspect that this reflects a black & white mindset, something that I believe people need to abandon. The sixth philosophy of the AD method is "Sweet Spot" which basically says that it isn't a black and white world, for any issue, that instead you need to find the "sweet spot" somewhere in between that works best for you. That sweet spot will be different for different situations.
So, whenever you think to ask a "this vs. that" question perhaps you should step back and instead consider a "how does this and that work together" question. Somthing to think about.

Thanks Layne and Barry:
I figured it out! I wasn't calling the getOccurance method in my Counter object. (Duh!)
So the code i had was correct only missing one key part.(the method call)
now my project is complete!
Thanks again,
Chad

Hello everyone:
I'm having trouble pulling a value out of my Set collection. Instead of the value I get a reference like: java146.util.Counter@cfb549
What I'm looking for is a numeric value not the reference. I tried type casting:
pw.println(me.getKey()+":"+"\t"+((Counter)me.getValue())); however I still got the reference as the value.
Any suggestions?
