It's almost busy over the sky. A whole day, there is almost no time to sit to your own Laptop.
Finally, there is time to sit down. Big stomach told me about Eclipse and NetBean's debate, the 9CBS Java channel homepage, almost become a headline. When I looked at it, I did a lot of bloggers published some comments. Interestingly, talking about slowing from Eclipse and NetBean, transferring to Eclipse and IDEA comparisons.
When this blog was issued, the main reason is that when SUN engineers (and Netbean) communities seem to have "fire", it seems to have a "fire" point (there is a little "annoyed"), and if there is a Eclipse The user migrated to NB, then "theoretically" should also have NB users to start using Eclipse.
In fact, not Idea, but there is more eclipse, one of which is the relationship of work. However, IDEA is not Free (currently only your project is Open Source, you can apply for a Free License), and the IDEA is not Open Source, which has a big impact on the entire community's support for this tool. .
In fact, I don't want to launch which IDE better argument, as if the operating system is arguing (when Windows and Linux "noisy" can't be opened, there will always be, "use Mac Osx"). For an IDE, it is largely dependent on the relationship of the work, and the rest is interest, and it is the contribution of the entire group of IDE.
For Eclipse's attention, I care more, is the Rich Client Platform (RCP) proposed by Eclipse Foundation. Just saw a blog, regarding RCA (Rich Client Application) and HCA (HTML Client Application). What do I need to develop RCA? Need a base platform, defining a well-known API, flexible broadband capabilities, and good support and document (there may be other elements). Engineers who have developed a Windows program with Visual Studio / MFC may read some experiences, why is the development of Windows applications in Studio (using Windows SDK)? The main reason is that the basic framework of the MFC and a large defined API. If there is no MFC, only Windows SDK, I think Windows applications will not emerge (this is of course VB, Delphi's credits). Perhaps doing such a direct class, but I always feel that Microsoft's "software giants" in attracting developers, also dedicated to the Open Source community carefully: Source opening is the most attractive, but "how to quickly And convenient development is also attractive enough.
