Eclipse

[A.M]

Hi,

Is Eclipse the most powerful IDE for Java? Do we have any better free IDE
for Java?

Thanks,
Alan

Not that I know of. Everyone has their favorite IDE, but I haven't
found anything that I have found to be satisfactory...

That's why I'm starting a new project called JDelphi. You can check it
out at jdelphi.dev.java.net, but there's nothing to download yet.

BTW, if you're interested in this project, and if you share the vision
behind it, your help would be very much appreciated in the development
effort.

Hi,
There are many free IDEs for Java, but which one you consider "most
powerful" is upto you. Take a look at <a href=
"http://www.artima.com/weblogs/viewpost.jsp?thread=67523">Java IDE
shootout</a> (requires free registration). Among others, it includes
Emacs and NetBeans, both of which are free. It does not include text
editors such as <a href="http://jedit.org/">JEdit</a>, a GPL'd text
editor for Java, or Vim.
