Hello i have tried the three ways: FacesIDE + corresponding plugins Myeclipse exadel Studio pro
As of now i am using Eclipse 3.1 together with exadel studio Pro 3.02 and i am planning to retest myeclipse 4.0 as soon M3 will be accessible. My experinces so far: in April/may 2005 it was a hassle to assemble Eclipse out of different plugins. So the trail with FacesIDE was not followed further. Myeclipse brings all needed plugins and it installs out of the box. Same for exadel. Personally i like Myeclipse more than Exadel, but i have to do some tasks were Myeclipse has not the right tools, yet. Exadel was the first environment where i get a myfaces webapp to run (even with jscook menues). My advice: try both and decide yourself. For me i tend to use myeclipse, but from time to time i must use Exadel since they are faster in developing things that i need. Perhaps i should change my requirements but that is not an option. Ciao, Carsten Höhne
