Don't think I agree with this. We are always stopping and starting Tomcat in our environment. We have four developers, each with their own database and tomcat. We use CVS and do a intergration build every morning on all the development machines to ensure no check ins have broken anything. In terms of IDE - I have been using eclipse, other developers like jEdit, or even - god forbid - vim. We don't use netbeans as if forces you to use a odd directory structure. Our structure is something like /project /project/doc - documention /project/bin - classes /project/dist - for war file or jars /project/jsp - jsp's /project/model - business model /project/src - source code. Most tools can handle different paths for these things - probably netbeans can too - but we found netbeans rather slow. We use mainly lightweight tools. Also, "idea" deserves a mention, and although it costs it has some nice refactoring features. Sorry - don't want to start a general IDE flamewar, so this will be the last I say on this subject :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
