Anyway, I like NetBeans but it misses a couple of very important
things
for me:
* fully customizable code formatting
Jalopy :-)
Is there a plugin for it?
* customization of bean properties with prefixes (so that getters and
setters are correctly generated)
True, but generation of getters and setters is done using the
refactoring engine. (Geert has a blog entry explaining how to write
your
own refactoring.)
I don't want to learn how to write your own refactoring engine just
to say that all my member variables are prefixed with the 'm'
character. Doesn't sound easy to me ;-)
It seems that NetBeans is really trying to get people to develop
plugins and they show an example of Wicket there. Maybe you an look
into creating a RIFE plugin ;-)
NetBeans works out of the box for me :-) But frankly, I don't see what
more a NetBeans plugin would do for RIFE development that it doesn't
already.
The most important parts for me are:
* highlighting of the template tags
* code hyper-linking in between different file type
- click on a template name in the element -> go to the template
- click on includes in a template -> go to the included template
- click on the element declaration in the site structure
- click on subsites
- click on element implementations
* intelligent structure views
- view all element declarations that use a particular implementation
- template inclusion inheritance
* a bunch of very easy to use live templates
What do you think?
