Eclipse and MyEclipse, IDEs to consider

May 18th, 2009 Øystein No comments

Is NetBeans really the only IDE you need? Or is Eclipse a competitor? Maybe MyEclipse (Eclipse with added plugins) is the way to go? And there is probably several other IDEs aswell! Which one do you use, and why?

Both NetBeans and Eclipse are free to use, while MyEclipse you pay a small yearly fee to use. Is it worth the cost of paying the MyEclipse fee? MyEclipse do come with a 30-day free trial, so I guess it’s a good idea to try it aswell.

If found an Eclipse review at rollerweblogger.org , check it out for more information about Eclipse. If you have used, or currently use, any of these or other IDEs – please feel free to leave a comment! Would love to hear your thoughts about what IDE to choose.
