Re: XEmacs & Ant or IDE?

Title: RE: XEmacs & Ant or IDE?

<vendor>   JBuilder contains keymappings for emacs, as well as the typical windows settings. There are also plugin's for VI and samples to write your own.  This may help you in your transition. JBuilder is written in Java so is identical on Linux, Solaris and Windows.   A bit off topic but more interesting for those interested in design patterns and architecture type stuff instead of IDE "bakeoffs" -  For info on how JBuilder was built check out the architects' homepage at http://homepages.borland.com/bstone/concepts.html  JBuilder was actually written in it's own Open Tools API, so "everything" is an addin and dynamically fits together at runtime.  A pretty cool architecture, not just for an IDE.   You can grab a free copy of JBuilder foundation from www.borland.com/jbuilder   -Rob   </vendor> ----- Original Message ----- From: Erik Huddleston To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 29, 2000 2:06 AM Subject: Re: XEmacs & Ant or IDE? I've been using Forte for Java (formerly NetBeans).  Awesome IDE, integrated support for just about everything (JSP, Servlets, EJB, XML, CVS, Ant, CORBA, Jini, JNDI, JDBC, etc, etc) and has a very good editor (including code completion).  It also contains the most complete integration and extension api I have ever seen in an IDE.  As if that weren't enough, they are releasing the source code for the core IDE under an open source license next month (May).
