NetBeans wins Open Source Tool of the Year, Eclipse eclipsed
posted Saturday, 5 March 2005
NetBean has just won
Product of the Year 2005: Developer.com.
Open Source Tool.
NetBeans has a new profiler,
a new fast UI, a new ANT
debugger, full J2EE
support including EJB and web service wizards, full J2SE 5.0
support, a killer Mobility
development environment, new refactoring features, unit testing and the
list goes on.
NetBeans 4.1 has also introduced a nice way to import
your projects from Eclipse, the Eclipse Project Importer. The Eclipse
Project Importer identifies and automatically fixes Eclipse project discrepancies,
it even identifies erroneous Eclipse project references and suggests
fixes. The Eclipse Project Importer lets you select Eclipse
projects and then imports them. To get it simply go to the Update
Center and download it.
Another recent addion, the Ant Debugger module,
that allows developers to find and fix bugs in their Ant scripts.
User can now see how Ant targets and tasks are both executed and
structured. You can put breakpoint in the scripts.
