Hi,
If you are a new java developer it's important that you start with the
command line. It helps you understand both the language and the IDE you
would eventually use for writing larger applications.
Regarding Netbeans vs. Eclipse, both are great. I have used them both
extensively. Eclipse does have an edge when it comes to choice of "official"
plugins (Android, GAE etc). But I feel Eclipse is bloated too much.
Netbeans has one USP which Eclipse cannot beat. The UI designer. If you are
into desktop application development with Java, nothing to beat this. It
gives the power of rapid application development (nearly VB like) for Java
developers. Eclipse does have a plugin but personally I feel that it does
not match Netbeans's internal support for UI design.
But Eclipse is not just an IDE. It is a platform. It provides a framework
for RCP (Rich Client Platform) applications. You can write applications
which runs inside the Eclipse platform.
Regards,
Arun
