Sure, and for those poor folks who don't use an IDE, your suggestion would be...?

Some would argue that conventions like yours should NOT be allowed
(supported), since it makes maintenance a nightmare. Much better to just
hover of the import statement and let the IDE tell you where it was found
(makes finding/using different implementation jars much easier).

My addition to Eclipse lies in all the free plugins I can get just by using a menu item from the Help menu. Actually, I've never touched IntelliJ, though the freebee aspect makes me tempted. One thing I *don't* like about IntelliJ is the fact that, in Eclipse, I put comments in the import statments telling which jar file to look in, and IntelliJ *loves* to reformat files in its own image, tossing out my comments. Collab development using cvs or other version control system can be hazzardous to your mental health.

I'm a recovering IntelliJ addict.  I decided to give
Eclipse a very good try and do not mind it as much as I
thought I would.  I'm now fluent in both and can honestly
say I'm on the fence.  IntelliJ feels so much nicer and
faster (on a Mac, mind you), yet Eclipse has a lot of
conveniences also.  I still lean towards IntelliJ myself,
but have a healthier respect for Eclipse than ever.

Where I work, some of us use Eclipse, which is nearly as

use

IntelliJ (the expensive version). Those of us used to
Eclipse see no need to change, and those using IntelliJ,
well, something about ripping objects from cold dead
hands...

I know Doug wrote Lucene with emacs. But I prefer an

IDE

where I can "surf" around the codebase, and many of the
other Lucene committers may also.  So here is your

chance

to get IDEA for free:
