Comment Eclipse for me (Score 1) 122
I've used Eclipse for a while but was forced to change to IDEA because of a new project I got involved in and the project, including the GUI, was written in IDEA. So I wasn't able to migrate the project to Eclipse because IDEA does some magic with the Swing part (if someone can tip me on how to get the Swing GUI written in IDEA working in Eclipse, it would be great!).
But I like Eclipse. Here is why:
- Eclipse looks more polished including fonts, project navigation...
- Overall usage is clearer in Eclipse. I like Eclipse's views - IDEA's small changing windows in the bottom of the GUI and popup windows are frustratingly messy.
- Debugger in Eclipse is GREAT!
- Code analyzer works on all files in the project, not only the one open in the editor.
Both have similar great features that I couldn't live without anymore and IDEA is good too, but I like *using* Eclipse more.
