Hey,
2008/4/4 Joerg Heinicke [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Which makes me wonder again how to do serious Java development with Mac OS
X. I know a few of you guys are using Mac OS X. How do you do it? Whenever I
start this I get annoyed very fast. The missing Java sources are only the
tip of the iceberg. Every tree representation in Eclipse just sucks.
Keyboard navigation in Mac OS X is completely inconsistent, especially with
Java programs. There seems to be no serious SVN command line client (or at
least the CollabNet download page is just self-linking at the moment:
http://downloads.open.collab.net/binaries.html). And so on ... Windows has
also bunch of annoying issues but there is at least consistency and usually
there is a solution for everything. Do you guys all switch to Linux when it
comes to Java development? :)
Nah, we all run windows on our macs, of course ;-)
Seriously though, you get used to the inconsistencies of keyboard
bindings. In fairness, eclipse on mac goes some way toward Mac-ness
(try Apple-, for preferences). SVN ships with OS X and I've never had
a problem with it (though a mature GUI svn client like tortoisesvn
would be nice sometimes).
Andrew.
