Please recommend a IDE

Hi,

Can you please recommend a IDE for working on Tomcat 4.0.3 + Struts 1.0.2 + Ant 1.4.1?  I am looking into eclipse.  But I don't know how to configure it for this purpose.

Thanks in advance for you help.

RE: Please recommend a IDE

Posted by Joseph Barefoot <jo...@hereuare.com>.
I think Rick is correct about your choice of IDE depending on your system.
If you have the resources, I emphatically support Netbeans.  It is
feature-rich, with many optional modules available via an automatic update
center, and many more unsupported ones out on the net that you can install
manually.  OptimalJ plugs in to it, as does refactorIT
(http://www.refactorit.com/).  You can get CVS support, code completing for
.java or .jsp files, remote debugging, Ant support, JUnit code skeleton
generators, and tons of other stuff.  Some guy actually wrote a plug-in for
it to allow you to control your music software (WinAmp on Windows and
another program for Linux, can't remember which) from within Netbeans
(useless for development, but amusing).

Netbeans projects are filesystem-oriented vs. project/class oriented IDEs
like Eclipse.  It's also open source and infinitely configurable.  It is,
however, a memory hog, and I wouldn't recommend using it unless you have
100MB or more of free memory to dedicate to it.  Have fun.

    I vote for JEdit http://www.jedit.org/
    
    and also I'm finding GEL pretty nice on a windows platform:
    http://www.gexperts.com/

    Both of the above editors are free and they do all that I need
    (JEdit is more customizable with the plugins).

    I like NetBeans also but don't need all the bloat it comes with on
    a day to day basis. If you need an advanced editor that has code
    insight (you know method completion after the '.') then go with
    one of the lighter weight editors above vs using one of "the big
    boys". With JEdit you can choose what you want to add .. need

    what you choose. Play around. It's a nice work diversion trying

I'm biased because I work on the development team for it, but
I think that Oracle's JDeveloper9i IDE is worth your consideration.

Here's what the Java trade press has been saying about it:

Thanks.

I've been using Netbeans for a couple of weeks and I like it very much.
It's a lot easier to use than Eclipse, in my opinion. Especially
configuring is a much smaller headache.

 For Tomcat plugin, you can check the documentation on the gived link.
For EasyStruts, documentation will be available soon ;)

Thank you for your quick response.
If I use Eclipse, do I have to use the plug-ins (Tomcat ...etc)? Is there a guide on setting up and how to use it?
Thanks

There are many good IDEs out there and the selection
typically comes down to personal favorite.

The following IDEs are all supported by the Struts
Console software and thus make Struts development
easier:

+ Borland JBuilder (www.borland.com)
+ NetBeans (www.netbeans.org)
+ Oracle JDeveloper (www.oracle.com)
+ Sun Forte (www.sun.com)

Struts Console:
