I am not an expert, but I did heard good words on Eclipse from my friends who use Java for their career. Maybe I missed some point on Eclipse, or the developer who re-write project from Eclipse missed lots of points. My feeling is: the software is an art. It is the people who write good software, not the language. Maybe I am wrong? Funny N.
