What is 'close' to asp.net for development
I do some development in apt.net using C# via Visual Studio and ado.net.
The integration of Visual Studio with the language and the database connectivity objects... and ESPECIALLY the easy drag/drop screen widgets (which creates the code to use them) is very nice. It makes developing web-based applications easier (but maybe not better... not the issue rightnow.) At risk of getting flamed, MS did a good job on ASP.NET from the developer's point of view. On Linux I usually code dynamic web apps via a plain old text editor (mostly in PHP) and use the ADODB database abstraction layer to connect to MySQL. It means I have to code (or generate) a lot of html and javascript for screen widget 'events' etc., and it's cumbersome to separate the presentation code from the business logic as is done so well by Visual Studio. What is 'close' to the ASP.net in the Linux world that is MATURE (as opposed to the Mono Project which is still a work in progress)? It does not have to be free. Cost is no object. Is it IBM's websphere? Something from Oracle? Maybe Eclipse with JSP? If a mid-size or large organization wanted to standardize on Linux and have something VERY MUCH like the ASP.Net development platform; something that would give them the ease of development for the programmers, what should they be looking at and from whom?
