[PJUG Javamail] Free version of IntelliJ...

[Bullard, Douglas]

The idea is that, since all of Intellij's features that aren't
implemented in the Community edition are plugins, open-source versions
of these can be written, and this will bring these features into the
open source version.

 

Before Intellij put so much stuff into IDEA, there use to be plugins
that did all that - I bet a lot of those can be dusted off and updated.

I came across this yesterday and, as an Intellij user, was excited.
That was until I looked at the feature comparison.  The free Community
edition is so stripped down that it is almost useless for JavaEE
development and completely useless for Grails...

Nice try JetBrains!  

I recommend checking out STS from Spring source. It is by far the best
eclipse IDE I have tried yet.

See:
   http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/nextversion/free_java_ide.html#linux

There are versions for Linux, Mac OS and that other operating
system.

I like Eclipse and recent versions of NetBeans, but I've also
heard great things about IntelliJ and was interested in what
was worth paying that much money for.  Its just hard to justify
$500+ to just satisfy my curiosity.

Now I just need to find the hours to give it a shot... (grin!)

P.S. Sorry if this is already old news...
