[ajug-members] favorite IDE

[Dan Marchant]

I have found that in most cases eclipse recognizes the project source
files with creating a new project and pointing it to an existing root
folder.

I am a bit annoyed with the project concept since in most cases people
work on a "product" not a project. Project are usually instances of a
product.

The other thing that annoys me about eclipse (which has work arounds)
is when creating a new workspace you have to reset all your source
control settings. For instance, I use the workspace as a way to have
multiple branches setup at a time. I usually copy the metadata
directory and it helps a bit.

In general, IDEs need better support for branches and release on a product line.

My 2 cents and vents
