I didn't say it was up to date, I said it was "pretty close." Current in version in ports is 3.7.0_4.
Netbeans IS up to date and is a better IDE in my opinion. If your project is based on maven, then you should be able to use any IDE that supports maven projects. However, last time I checked, the maven support in Eclipse was fairly limited and essentially unusable... Netbeans and IntelliJ have much better support for maven. ________________________________ From: kron <kro...@gmail.com> To: Dan Daley <ddda...@yahoo.com>; Ports FreeBSD <freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.org> Sent: Tue, February 28, 2012 3:38:43 AM Subject: status of eclipse [WAS Re: No working IDE in FreeBSD!] On 2012/02/26 15:53, Dan Daley wrote: > > Not all IDEs are so out of data.

Hi, actually, eclipse *is* out of date: java/eclipse: 3.6.2 java/eclipse-devel: 3.7.0 while the latest stable is 3.7.2. 3.7.1 was the first eclipse supporting Java 7 syntax. Since I need it (I collaborate on some Java 7 projects) I run it on a Linux virtual machine. I tried to update the port but failed and now I'm short of time. Is anybody working on the port? A week or two ago I asked on freebsd-eclipse@ but no response.
