I have been hooked on Visual Slickedit since I tried it. I have been a
long time lemmy/vi fan, and Slickedit is a dream come true for me. It has
near perfect emulation of vi, and I love the autocomplete/symbol viewer
that comes with it.

Please
respond to

I'd like to hear what you have to say about Visual Slick Edit, or any other
tools you use. I'm collecting this sort of thing.

With regard to the development tool to use, i would suggest making the
distinction between - 'fullblown IDEs', 'programmer editors', and 'text
editors'.
I noticed on this thread earlier that most people seem to working with
fullblown IDEs which surprised me a little. Personally, I use Visual Slick
Edit, as does my team [16 developers]. I would class this tool as a
'programmers editor' - as distinct from JBuilder/Visual Cafe etc which I
consider fullblown IDE's. There are advantages and disadvantages to each
type of tool, but this is something rarely pointed out to people -
particularly the people asking the question in the first place !
As final choice is always personal, I think it would be helpful to point
out
the specific advantages to working with each type of tool in developing
struts and developing struts based applications - as there is sometimes a
mistaken assumption that the fullblown IDEs are more suitable. This really
depends on what kind of development you are doing - and what kind of
developer you are. [it doesn't depend on rights and wrongs !]
I felt moved to respond to this thread, as choice of development tool can
radically affect an individual's and/or team's performance and efficacy. In
my experience, this is an area somewhat neglected - save for the'HolyWar'
style of exchanges which do not interest me personally.
I would be happy to expand on our development tool of choice and it's
advantages in our context, if there is interest.

I believe I've added the Powered by Struts sites submitted to this
thread so far. Thanks so much!
I've also fleshed out more of the "kickstart" FAQ at
< http://husted.com/about/struts/kickstart.html >.
There are still three questions on my list, in case anyone wants to
jump in.
+ What development tool should I use?
+ How do I develop a Struts application?
+ How do I troubleshoot a problem with a Struts application?
I've some notes about these at the bottom of the page, again, in case
anyone wants to jump in ;-).
When this is complete, I'll propose it for the documentation package.
Of course, any comments or suggestions would be welcome!
