I love Eclipse despite little deficiencies: - I constantly use Eclipse's CVS functions and the only problem I experience is my difficulty with the merge function which can sometimes be troublesome. - Missing remove trailing spaces function. - NPE in PDFWArray inside Eclipse (don't know whether that's because of Checkstyle or Eclipse)
Some pros on the other side: - Good refactoring support - Excellent plugins available (for Checkstyle, for example) - doesn't cost much :-) What are your remaining problems with Eclipse? Only the Ant thing or something else? Just curious. IMO the changes I've done to FOP's directory structure should have fixed all problems inhibiting working in Eclipse. I do the code generation part outside Eclipse using "ant codegen" and include the "build\gensrc" directory with the generated sources inside Eclipse.
