Questions related to the use of Netbeans
Hi Netbeans Users,
currently I am researching the strengths and weaknesses of different IDEs. I think Netbeans is awesome in the integration with Maven. But I am also curious what you think about this great IDE!
I hope you can help me in answering the following questions:
1. What are the best Netbeans plugins to use you think? And do you know some funny ones??
2. Are there any upcoming cool features?
3. What could be improved?
4. Why should the whole world use this IDE?
5. First IDE that you ever used? And why?
Hope you can help me. Thanks!
Regards,
Ko Turk
Re: Questions related to the use of Netbeans
Posted by Darin Miller <da...@gmail.com>.
1. Due to my inexperience, I am not using any plugin's for Java
development. I welcome any recommendations. (BTW, I just found the regex
plugin. I don't know how to use it yet, but it would have been handy
several times during my development).
2. Our company was stuck on Java v. 1.6 until recently and as far as I
know, I am the sole Netbeans user at the company. Java development is a
side responsibility and I have not had time nor "partner assistance" to
discover and appreciate new features.
3. Improvements needed:
- Memory usage/footprint on NB 11 seems higher than 8.2. But I have not
used it enough to fully evaluate.
- Also, on 8.2 the search results "hover help" covers ups the search
entries at the bottom of the list making mouse selection of the respective
search entry impossible. This seems to be fixed in NB11 (awesome!).
- My large project will not load in NB 11 as "swing layout library is
missing" and I have not figured out how easily fix the nearly 40 classes
that are victims of this issue.
- Better handling of mixed DPI environments both in the editor and in
the Java apps.
- X-platform, open source font packs to improve swing component
consistency (maybe I just don' know how best manage what is already
provided?)
4. I inherited a Java project with over 100,000 lines of code in nearly 60
classes and I knew nothing about Java. This project would have been
impossible to manage without an IDE.
Editing features I love about NB:
- global and local searches in addition to selection highlighting
- Alt-F7 (find usages)
- ctrl-B (go to declaration),
- And my absolute favorite: Ctrl-q cycles though the last edit
location(s).
I see condescending comments online about real programmers do not use a
swing editor, but for a part time coder as I am, the swing editor is
awesome (sometime frustrating, but beats the hell of learning and
implementing every little form nuances of manual form control!).
5. NB was my 1st IDE. I have also used Pycharm (impressive but overkill
for most of the python work I do) and KDevelop. NB is my favorite, hands
down.

Re: Questions related to the use of Netbeans
Posted by Jonathan Bergh <be...@gmail.com>.
1. What are the best Netbeans plugins to use you think? And do you know
some funny ones??
SpringBoot, Darcula
2. Are there any upcoming cool features?
C/C++
3. What could be improved?
Gradle integration used to be slightly irritating (Netbeans used to always
open a project preferentially as a maven project if a pom.xml was also
present, even if the previous session opened it as a gradle project)
but gradle support is now integrated and this shouldnt be a problem
anymore.
4. Why should the whole world use this IDE?
Open source, multi-language support, from HTML / JS to Java / Groovy to
C/C++, even Python. You never have to switch to another IDE between
projects.
Awesome for J2EE support
5. First IDE that you ever used? And why?
Eclipse, as this is what the institute i was at recommended.

Re: Questions related to the use of Netbeans

I am just curious why people are using certain IDEs. I am really excited when I am reading (and learning) new stuff (for example the cool plugins you guys sent). Never knew there was a Darcula theme or the Jeddict plugin.
I want to use the content for my new talk “The Battle of the IDEs”.
Thanks for the help!

Hi Ko,
A challenge you have here is that NetBeans is many different things to different people. You’re not likely to get a representative response, just random people saying random things, rather than something meaningful that anything can seriously be drawn from.

Kay Wrobel's Crud Generator for Netbeans - worked until post 8.2 builds, anyways.
2. Are there any upcoming cool features?
Hopefully full support for Wildfly
3. What could be improved?
Adding features by creating projects is awkward.
4. Why should the whole world use this IDE?
Because it's open source. And, of course... because it's an Apache project!
5. First IDE that you ever used? And why?
Turbo Basic for DOS. Because it was cheap and it got the job done. And IDE's were the latest new thing. No, I'm still not yet retired. ;)

I don't generally install any plugins outside of those that NetBeans
provides or downloads for me (e.g. nb-javac).

C/C++ support is coming up.
> 3. What could be improved?
JavaFX support seems problematical. Some people have reported problems
with FX projects, while others have proposed wildly differing solutions.

Because it just works out-of-box (it even includes a profiler) and it's
open source. And, of course... because it's an Apache project!

NetBeans 3.3(?) sometime around 2000. We'd been coding small desktop
Java apps for our factory and warehouse using a text editor, which was
impractical. We first looked at an early version of NetBeans, which
didn't perform well. Then we looked at IBM's Visual Age for Java, which
taught us the true meaning of pain and suffering. By this time NetBeans
had matured enough to be useful, and the company was still using it when
I retired in 2014.

Re: Questions related to the use of Netbeans

1. Jeddict: http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/53057/jeddict
2. Inclusion of localization bundles: https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/1167
3. C/C++ integration, but that's coming, part of a next donation.
4. It's simply the best in terms of comprehensiveness and breadth of features.
5. Eclipse, mandated by my employer, then switched to NetBeans.
Thanks!

In an Apache project, nothing ever goes away. :-)

Re: Questions related to the use of Netbeans

Hi,
This weekend I will release the first beta of NBANDROID-V2 for Apache
Netbeans.
Compared to the original NBANDROID there are many improvements.
Only support for ANT projects is missing compared to the original NBANDROID.
Unfortunately, Google has canceled Ant support so Gradle is the only option.

I used to use the NBAndroid plug-in but that has gone away. I don't use
any other plug-ins.

Handling of JavaFX application development and distribution. It would
also be nice to use Netbeans for Android development (I am not finding
androidstudio all that great, e.g. just tried an automatic update and
it barfed).

It's ready to go out of the box, it's written in Java and, of course...
because it's an Apache project!

Java Workshop because it was the only Java IDE available at the time.
Turned out it had an horrendous architectural flaw and 2/3 of the way
through a large project we hit a brick wall! Frantically hunting for an
alternative we discovered this little Czech company called Netbeans!
Not only did their IDE not have the fatal flaw found in Java Workshop
but it was written in Java - we were moving our dev machines off
Windows NT and onto Linux so the fact Netbeans would run on any OS was
a huge plus. Bought copies of Netbeans for all our developers and the
rest, as they say, is history.
