Lots of netbeans users in China

Select your IDE Netbeans vs Eclipse | Java By Example | Netb

Of course! IDEA Intellij. The best in refactoring feature.

If your doing desktop applications mas OK ang netbeans kay naa na cya daan buillt-in nga GUI editor.
Kung web ok ra both.
I tried both.
Use eclipse for web/struts.
Netbeans for desktop app.

I agree bro.. both great IDEs for Java...

1. Eclipse
2. Net Beans

tama. Eclipse or Netbeans. I really like them both - although kung papiliun, mas maayo para sa ako ang Eclipse. Mas matured and mas daghan ug support. Dili sad kaayo ka i-blind-fold compared to Netbeans nga mura-mura na sad ug Visual Studio.

Unsa imo pasabot i-blind-fold?

meaning a lot of stuff like configuration files are hidden from you because nb handles them for you. it's makes it easier to create your project, yes, and of course you have access to them if you know where to find them, but later you'll realize it's a lot better if you handle them yourself.

like for instance, how easy is it to create an ejb project in nb than in eclipse. in nb you don't have to manage all those configuration files to make your project run coz nb does that for you. in eclipse you have to spend a little bit more time for setting things up.

but, when it comes to troubleshooting and deployment/production phase it's a life saver to know the setup by heart. a lot of things can happen during production.

another one is project migration. currently we're working on a project from chinese programmers who were using Idea (intellij). it's a maven project. i found it easier to migrate it to eclipse than to netbeans.

although there's a steeping learning curve in eclipse, but it's worth it.

but of course, i'm not saying nb is no good. i've been using nb before eclipse. i've learned java using nb. so when you're starting up in java, nb would be best to use.

A tie between Eclipse and NetBeans.
