I stuck with JDK for two years and have just begun using IBM Visual Age.
Aside from finding it much easier to lay out a GUI, there are several other
features that I couldn't live without. If you ever find yourself working
with another developer, using an IDE will make things much easier as a team.
I too enjoyed the flexibility and control of coding by hand - but lately
Java has become too large and complex for me to keep doing it the old way.
It really depends on what you need to do.

> Some may think I am joking with this question but in reality I am not. I
am curious as to the number of people out there that do not use IDE's. I
find that VI and the JDK allow the ultimate flexibility. I have used
JBuilder, VC and Oracle JDeveloper. Am crazy to do it this way? What's the
norm in the programming world? I am a consultant and I am the only Java
developer where I work.
