Has anyone tried the new Dreamweaver MX yet? It supports ASP.NET now. I was wondering how it compares to Visual Studio.NET.
Take a Flash feature tour here
Dreamweaver MX Feature Tour
It looks pretty comprehensive. There's a free demo you can download as well.
Hmmm looking at the flash product feature tour i don't think Dreamweaver MX supports program coding though. I think it's more of a "web form editor", which is a subset of what VS .NET offers.
I had a bit of fiddle with the prerelease, I wasn't impressed for starters it can't handle being behind a firewall and a proxy server. In the support forums the comment was made by someone "..Expensive program, have to use a free tool to upload your site.." something like that.
And it doesn't do much other than give you a WYSIWYG interface to design your forms and pages. Also in order to connect your db and work with real information you have to set up a site which involves setting up a remote server.. If you are stuck behind a Firewall and proxy server you're screwed!(see above paragraph). As far as I know going on fuctionality in VB6 pro, you can use live data from your db in VS without having a webserver running.
What else...........Oh and the code editors aren't any good as far as syntax highlighting and all that goes, it is either blue or black, Keywords and text. Nothing for comments nothing for members, properties or what ever.
I don't like it from a prerelease version evaluation. Maybe the release will be better.
