Re: what os env you use to develop lucene or solr?

2014-08-11 Thread Paul Libbrecht
I use MacOSX for development since more than 10 years.
It's, by far, the user-friendliest Unix-based system.

So copy and paste works "correctly" from the terminal to the IDE.
Find in the terminal is nicely behaving (really!).
This is kilometers away from XWindows' terminals and megameters away from the 
DOS shell (I have indeed a limited experience in both things).

Lucene and solr work flawless on all such systems. Beware not to use network 
disks for the index file-system.

The only "special" OS-thing about Lucene/Solr is that you should use a
64-bit OS for proper memory mapping.

With that out of the way, the question becomes "What OS should one use
for developing" and that is extremely dependent on taste and context. 

The three obvious choices are Windows, OS X and a Linux variant. I would
argue that OS X and Linux are fairly similar when developing in Java as
file locking and scripting works the same way: If your server is OS X or
Linux, using either OS X or Linux for development makes for easier
testing. Likewise, if your server runs Windows, you might catch some
errors earlier by developing under Windows.

My clients are all Windows, my servers are all Linux.  I've used Linux
clients, but I do enough stuff with my computers that is either hard or
impossible on Linux that I haven't taken the full plunge.

For Java development, I used eclipse.  I've done some poking in IntelliJ
IDEA, but it's not at all familiar yet.

I've heard awesome things about newer Macs, but I probably won't be
trying that until somebody else pays for it.

Thanks,
Shawn
