The IDE is just a tool to code in your chosen language. You can use
Eclipse, Netbeans, IntelliJ, Emacs, vi, etc.
They all work differently and have a different approach to enable a
developer to write code. Choose one, for whatever
reason you want to, then stick with it and learn about it.
Netbeans might be creating a main class for your project when you create
the project. Eclipse probably has some
other way of doing it. Or might be some sort of preference that you need
to set. I use Emacs so I don't know how
Eclipse or NB do things.
