I get this a lot using the Groovy/Grails Eclipse plugin
at work:
This reminds me of that line from Brazil – “My complications had complications.”
Yes I’ve tried Netbeans and IntelliJ – they’re nice but I don’t want to re-learn an IDE, I’ve spent a lot of time with Eclipse and other than the Groovy plugin, it does what I need and very well. And yes I’ve played with memory settings in eclipse.ini.
I have several Grails apps in my workspace, so I try to keep open only the ones that I’m actively using to avoid memory issues. But eventually memory gets screwy, and I get to restart Eclipse again. Yay!
I’m definitely looking forward to SpringSource allocating resources to improving the plugin now that they’ve aquired G2One – should help tremendously.
I used to feel this pain as a long-time eclipse user. I eventually got tired of the eclipse problems and started looking at Netbeans and Intellij. All the kool kidz use TextMate and a shell, I’m thinking that may be what I settle on until the Netbeans or Eclipse groovy support is up to snuff.
LOL, I appreciate the quote from Brazil, . . . Great movie. I too look forward to SpringSource putting their experience behind the plugin.
I struggled with Eclipse a great deal (we all did at Sky) so ended up going to Intellij. While I’m far from being in love with it – plenty of things about it annoy me so much compared to Eclipse – which is far more developer friendly imo
Once thing thats easy to toggle in the config is KeyBindings: the whole Eclipse keybinding set can be applied to Intellij making it even more useful.
