Netbeans Vs Eclipse .which one is best ?   
Mar 28, 2007 11:57 PM

 
hello,
My project work related to SNMP protocol. In my project I need to get and set data in a remote wireless device. for this , I want to know which one IDE (netbeans or eclipse) shall i use for my project.

now I am working in netbeans. but, the problem is it may strucking up some times and it takes some time while getting data and also at that time it struck.

If any one use the both IDEs, give your suggestions.

thank you.

there is no "best", there is only personal preference. seriously. download them both, and try them out. don't believe any evangelism about which is better, and don't make the assumption that because netbeans is an "official" Sun product (which it isn't, really) it must be better. find out what you're comfortable with, and use it

I use netbeans at work, I am currently using the latest release. I find it quite slow, and it hangs quite often for periods of anything between 10 seconds and 2 minutes.

One of my colleagues is now using eclipse as he was having similar problems with netbeans, and I am thinking of changing to eclipse.

I will wait until I get a ram upgrade for my work machine though, as this could be the reason I am experiencing this.

your employer allows individuals to use different IDEs? that's a recipe for extra unnecessary work! worked in one place like that, and everyone spent a good half hour every time they updated source, re-shuffling files to fit their IDE. not fun

Yes it is strange I guess, but I think that at one time everyone used JBuilder, but now they dont want to pay for any new licences so everybody uses a free IDE.

So some people are using eclipse and some netbeans. I will wait until I have some more ram, and the current project I am on finishes before I install a new IDE.

I did a survey on this just last week. I asked 10,000 Java software developers what their favourite development tool is. The results are

43 % Eclipse
42% Netbeans
5% JBuilder
4% Emacs
2% Notepad
3.99% Other
0.01% VI (Jos?)

You may quote me on this.

wow that was good work sabre.

I'm using netbeans too, well i have an increase of ram too. so that it wont give me any headache. i never used eclipse, i downloaded it once and saw that it will take me time to learn it, so i based on netbeans only.

May be in i will give it a try

I have to confess that I can't figure out if sabre's kidding or not. I've always been dim that way. Natural satire victim.

To the OP, I say: "African or European swallow?"

I used to have this problem too whenever I unplugged my computer and it was running off of battery (I'm using a laptop). It frustrated me for a long time until someone suggested it was my power settings. I also noticed in the interim that it wasn't just NetBeans, it was all my Java programs. My graphics card (ATI Radeon) was optimizing for battery life when my computer wasn't plugged in. So I adjusted my power settings and now NetBeans works fine whether or not my computer's plugged in.

I did briefly use Eclipse before I changed my power settings, and it didn't seem to suffer from the same problems NetBeans did. I think it's due to the fact that NetBeans uses Swing whereas Eclipse uses SWT.

There are bundles of Netbeans come with Sun Java App Server which would be a good start of building J2EE application without having to do much setting.
Netbeans separate the EJB and Servlets, JSPs into different kind of project.
It has built in features to generate EJB and DB schema.

Eclipse runs faster, use less resources, open sources with many plug-ins.
It has lots of features to help your development.

I think Netbeans would be easier to start and learn.
Eclipse would be better once you know the basics and needs more power.
