It was almost as if I heard myself complaining about the bad design most RAD tools promote... what I wonder is.. why couldn't RAD tools promote doing it in "the right way" with proper MVC separation and everything....
It is like the new Java Studio Creator for Sun, the first version copied the DataSet idea from VS.NET and copied it IMHO in the worst possible may (by assuming incorrectly that .NET databinding only worked for the DataSet and not for any .NET object... it is true that it seems like that on the first look, but if you analyze the API closer, you can see it is biased to make it easier for the DataSet, but it does allows for pure object databinding... and what do the Sun guys do? they make it only work for tables! without object support! (they tried to fix it for Java Studio Creator 2, but the object-view has a bug that makes it unusable... I just cant believe it, how could they make such a mistake having really good ORM tools like Hibernate, EOF, Castor o Cayenne, I was expecting full object databinding from them... but, until now, there is nothing close to .NET databinding in the Java world)
