Believe it or not I don't use Eclipse or other IDE ... except for
the debugger aspect I despise them. My fingers and mind are
trained for emacs thus I rarely use IDE's unless I need a
debugger. So that being said how painful is it to setup geronimo
under Eclipse or other debugger? Is there an easy step by step
process to do this some where posted? At this point in time I
don't really want to take a week just to get it running under a
debugger. If it is simple then I will do so. Actually if I don't
have another option I guess I will have to do so.
What IDE/Debugger would you suggest is the least painless to use
with Geronimo? I tried Eclipse a long time ago and hated the way
it forced its structure on me. I don't want to get into a war on
IDE's but and IDE should never dictate external process or
structure. Okay off my soapbox ... any way I happy to do what you
suggest.
I use intellij IDEA and really like it. After about an hour I
abandoned my years of emacs use and haven't looked back for java
code. If you can get a copy (I think they have a free trial) run
FYI, Eclipse has *ok* bindings of emacs keys. It's one of the reasons
that I'm using Eclipse over Intellij, at the moment. The emacs key
bindings won't do everything that you'll want to do. However, you may
find the transition a bit easier... You don't necessarily have to do
a lot of editing in the IDE, anyway...
There's some emacs support in Intellij, but at the time I looked, not
enough... That may have changed, or I may not have looked in the
right places...
Eclipse setup is similar to Idea. There's information on getting
Eclipse setup in our wiki -- http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/

To enable emacs key bindings in Eclipse: Windows -> Preferences ->
General -> Keys -> Scheme -> Emacs
