The IDE topic has been of much interest here as well. So far the search for the Grail led me to Komodo IDE via Eclipse + EPIC. Eclipse + EPIC is a great tool, if you get it working properly. To do that you propably should use older eclipse versions which are more compatible with EPIC. Even if EPIC says it is compatible with the newest Eclipse, I still got the same crashing and freezing behaviour. Eclipse + EPIC works well on windows side. On Ubuntu 11.10 the newest Eclipse works fine but older Eclipses had serious configuration settings failures, which led to reinstalls of workspaces in Eclipse (in my case). Being fed up with windows generally being less optimal development environment for Perl, and EPIC constantly freezing|crashing in Ubuntu, I decided to try Komodo IDE. While being proprietary, it worked out of box with zero fuzz. It also has lots of useful functionality, like Perl remote coding|debugging. As IDEs, Komodo and Eclipse are quite capable with both having their ins and outs and I honestly can't say which one is better. If you come from Eclipse background, use it unless it gives you hell, as OS is OS, because OS.
Whatever you do, do not use vim or emacs :D ,as the main programming tool. Debuggers in proper IDE's are way superior (or nobody has taken the time to actually demonstrate that you can debug in a terminal with something else than perl -d). Unfortunately I find it impossible to do remote debugging on Evergreen, in a Java remote server debuggin fashion. I think it might be because of debugger finding it impossible to follow code execution through OpenSRF (I could be wrong here), but I definetely will be interested about that topic and gladly cooperate with you guys on finding a way to do that. That might get some kettles boiling... ;) Please correct me if I'm wrong. -- Olli-Antti Kivilahti Open Library 2013 Library of Joensuu On 05/30/2012 06:25 PM, [email protected] wrote: > Send Open-ils-dev mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://libmail.georgialibraries.org/mailman/listinfo/open-ils-dev > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [email protected] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [email protected] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Open-ils-dev digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
