+1 for IDEA easy to start with as compared to Eclipse, rest of all is also too Easy, very helpful great features, refactoring , shortcuts, keymaps, templates Preforce external tools, you dont have to leave IDEA to do any extra work, everything could be configured in IDEA
all of this and much more leads to productivity Panchasheel -----Original Message----- From: Mainguy, Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 10:47 AM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: J2EE IDE I would have said netbeans a year ago, but now I'm an eclipse 2 (2.1) fan. Haven't tried any recent (last 6 months) IDEs other than eclipse. -----Original Message----- From: Greg Reddin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 5:09 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: J2EE IDE +1 on NetBeans although I've not used Eclipse. I tend to stop looking when I find something that works. However, I find that 90% of the time it's quicker for me to just use vi and Ant. I use NetBeans for debugging though. And if I'm forced to use Windows for my development I'll immediately install NetBeans.
