I feel like I've been thrown back in a time warp to 1996 when I was
coding Java in emacs with TextMate. RadRails just isn't stable.
Don't some of you guys come from the Java world? Don't you miss the
features in code completion, re-factoring and all that goodness that
IDEs gave you? How productive is it to stop, change windows, search
and look an API and switch back to you editor to finish the task
every time you forget the exact APIs format? I could do the same
with Java and JEdit but why would I ever work like that?
Don't get me wrong, I'm committed to finishing the "Agile with RoR"
book but I miss Java already.
So far I'm not seeing the benefit over Maven w/ project templates
(which can give you convention over configuration), Spring (which
gives you IoC), Hibernate (ActiveRecord) and a Eclipse with all the
web tools plugins (which doesn't cost me $50 either like TextMate).
