Hi Chanchao,
Sorry. I forgot to write the proper subject. Sending the same

You might want to take a look at Java Studio Creator which runs on
Linux, Windows and Solarios. It's not free but Sun is giving away the
binaries at http://java.sun.com. Further, you can get a good
Java-based open-source IDE at NetBeans.Org - the 5.5 (upcoming)
version of which seems to be very much like the Studio Creator. For
Enterprise apps, Sun is giving away yet another very good tool - Sun
Java Studio Enterprise which also includes Patterns Automation via UML
tools - in addition to yet another - the Sun C++ compiler/IDE on Linux
and solaris (and perhaps other) platforms. So if the proprietary
nature of the company (i.e. Sun Microsystems) is not very important to
you and you just want to develop using a multi-platform IDE then
these tools might fill the fill.
I used to work on DreamWeaver-MX(2K4) for web-application development
but now I prefer Quanta and other web-dev tools on Linux and work
directly in code - instead of having to use Windows just for the sole
purpose of web application development. I would suggest that you do
the same.
