Bashing eclipse is popular because eclipse is a horrible experience, from start to end. As I said in my original post I've been using eclipse for as long as there has been an eclipse and many many of the concepts in how data is presented in eclipse make a LOT of sense. The problem is that it's buggy. And I don't mean a few minor issues here and there, I mean hair pulling, vein popping, cat kicking failures that make an average day of using eclipse less desirable than a barbed wire sandwich. If one was to use eclipse to endlessly write Hello World apps in a pure java environment without any external data sources, or libraries, or version control system, or other languages.. then one would likely be quite happy and be completely confused why anyone would see a problem with eclipse.
Like I said in the original post.. I love eclipse, I just can't deal with it anymore.
