Re: Replacement IDE for CodeWarrior?

I'm a big fan of IDEA, and not at all a fan of Eclipse. But that's a religious matter, and almost any discussion of IDEs quickly turns into a flame war. So let me just give one piece of advice:
Whatever IDE you end up using, use Ant to do your builds. All of them have reasonably good Ant integration, and it's a lot easier to change IDEs in the future if you aren't dependent on a particular one's build system. Over the last six years, I've moved from CodeWarrior to Project Builder to jEdit to Eclipse to IDEA, all without ever having to redo my build scripts.
Besides, few IDEs have native build systems that even come close to matching the flexibility of Ant.
