Hey StephenC, I was looking for Anders' answer in Eclipse issue. Important is that the issue was isolated to https://github.com/tesla/m2eclipse-mavenarchiver and to Maven.
Issues are everywhere, in every tool, that's the life. Maybe some did not reach such ratings to fix them nor contributor who could fix them. In 2010 I worked with Eclipse and Idea but I was missing such code inspection in Eclipse that Idea had, but Eclipse has many other plugins for EE and Web, where other tool does not and so therefore there are separately specialized tools for Web (.., ..., ...), UML - EnterpriseArchitect, etc. Drawback of those tools is the cost, advantage of Eclipse is free cost, user conformance is different in each. So I used Idea due to the code inspection analysis which fits to me and my commercial collagues in companies (not talking about oss), but other people may have different feelings. I utilized code inspection as much as possible, but according to my experiences in commercial companies my collagues did not utilize it so much which affected their code quality. So everyone can choose, so I tried 3 tools and chose the one. Maybe everybody has tried all tools and has own preference, that's the life. I am only glad that I can share the reasoning and exps, that's all.
