NetBeans versus Eclipse!! There's no better way to get attention than with a subject like that! There's a new JavaCast podcast out. This is a new "weekly radio program" on Java and what's happening in the Java world. If you have iTunes, or other podcasting software, it's trivial to subscribe to the weekly feek - just follow the links from the JavaCast page. Of course, you can just listen to the MP3 file directly.
So why did I use such a controversial subject for this blog entry?
In this week's JavaCast, I'm the interview subject. One of the things I talk about is the "IDE war" - addressing why I don't think NetBeans should give up just because Eclipse have signed up so many partner companies. Other things I address is Class Library Development versus Component Based Development, I talk about my observation that many server-side framework pundits seem to have tools phobia, and of course I talk a bit about AJAX and about Creator.
