Gedit (see Java compile and run, HOWTO: Set gedit to compile and run Java source code and also Pimp my Gedit (Was: Textmate for Linux) to get some Textmate features).
Geany (see Fast, powerful Geany editor offers IDE features).
Emacs + JDEE (see Is Emacs useful compared to Eclipse programming Java?).
Vim + eclim (see Tips for using vim as a Java IDE?, Vim Java code completion?).
If you are using Linux, then have a look: But still it hard to resolve conflictĮDIT: I am using Linux & (sometimes Windows).
Doing SVN checkin/checkout from console.
Now using Maven, and running from console always.
?Īnd what are famous advanced text-editor (free/open-source) available ?įew steps towards console-world I have already taken. So, what should i do to shift from Java IDE's to text-editor only world. I heard that many programmers does not use IDE's they just need text-editors (code-coloring/navigation), And i think its cool, and productive (overall), as their need of tooling is not much, so able to adopt new technologies/frameworks fast. like I started using AspectJ but there is not much aspectJ support on netbeans.
Many times does not support all the features, but other IDE does, which will make you to try other IDE and results in spending lots of time behind tooling.
You can't work without them, like I am trying to work on javascript, but it was hard for me because of no code-completion support.
Doesn't work on slow computers - sometimes i have to work on slow computer.I am really happy that I got my work in Java programming, and I am doing it since last 3 yrs.Īnd I am netbeans user, and worked on eclipse for sometime (4 months).
