Java IDEs?

Posted by Cliff on from the vague-coffee-flavour dept.

Billy the Mountain asks: "In the startup company I'm in, we just got a new president and she asked us about ways of increasing developer productivity. We develop Java applications, servlets and JSP. I don't use an IDE. I use an enhanced text editor, EditPlus, because I like its color coding of keywords. I guess what I'm asking is what Java IDEs do you use and what features do you like best?" If you were to build a Java IDE from the ground up, what features would you include?

    Looks like a bug in Slashcode 2.2 :)

    Hey, it takes balls to apply changes to the 'production' server... if I were them, I'd wait until the umpteen clone slash sites try it first and report all the bugs...

    Now the counter is right again, which will of course make us all like like morons. Maybe its there to break peoples first post bots? (If numreplies 10, pretend like its too late) Of course, having 10-20 comments about "what is wrong with slashcode" is so much better than a few bits of noise...
