Hi,
I've taken the plunge (started using Eclipse) and it is really not that bad at all. Matter of fact the only issue that I saw that is a real problem, is it does not out of the box compile applications for SSDD/WAR correctly. It took someone from the list to help me get this going. Other than that, I see no reason to go back to XCode. Eclipse can be modified to add code completion support for not only HTML, but CSS and _javascript_ too. So, in many ways it is a better web page design tool than WOBuilder. Have a look at www.aptana.com
re: Who has the time? Unfortunately (fortunately?), I believe this profession requires you to learn new things all the time and this is just one more instance of it.

I keep hearing the phrase's "once I converted my projects" and "once I got use to Eclipse/WOLips." That's a really big problem for a lot of us who REALLY DON'T HAVE THE TIME!
We don't have the month or more to figure out and acclimate ourselves to Eclipse/WOLips and painstakingly convert all of our projects and frameworks (which I'm still fighting with). Combine this with the fact that now I'll be editing my HTML and WOD files by hand and we're talking a serious loss of productivity. (and time... and money...) |
