When your customer uses plugins / libraries which do not work with your version of eclipse and you have to install an older eclipse with which yet other plugins do not work - this can become really time-consuming to sort out. For instance the new eclipse version destroyed my colleagues Android plugin - took him 3 days to recover from that (if I remember correctly the problem was you could not download the older eclipse version or android plugin, so a simple re-install could not be done).

I prefer Eclipse. I switched to NetBeans one time, after two weeks, switch back to Eclipse. Maybe I got used to Eclipse. One bad thing about Eclipse is that it can not keep the last used files on the tab.

I recently joined a Java Developer Network group on linkedin.com, and look at this poll.

What is your favorite integrated development environment (IDE) in 2013 ?

eclipse an intellij are overrated, netbeans is equally good.

Don't know about NetBeans, but in IntelliJ you can hit Ctrl+E to see last used files ("Recent Files").

Some things more in IntelliJ:
- If you hit Alt+F1, you can see "targets" where you can open / see the current file, e.g. in Project Structure, File Explorer, Maven View, Changes View, etc.
- If your cursor on a method call, e.g. myClass.invokeSomething(param1, param2), and you hit Ctrl+P, you will see all available parameters in this method and all other methodes with the same name.
- If your cursor on a method call, class, etc. and you hit Ctrl+Q, you can see JavaDoc in an overlay.
- Navigate to a symbol is a most useful feature. Hit Ctrl+Alt+Shift+N and type any word, e.g. "users", you will see all Java classes, JavaScript, CSS, property files, etc. which contain this word.
- If you in a Java class and hit Ctrl+F12, you will see the class structure, properties, constructors and methods, and can narrow them by typing or click and navigate to what you want.

I remember that one thing that cause me to switch from NetBeans,
mouse over method: it did not show me the javadoc and method signature.

Ctrl+E opens a list of all files that are not ordered by Most Rencently Used.
Actually I like them to stay at the top of Tabs for most recently files. Right now I have to switch back and forth to find just edited files. I believe it has affected my daily coding speed. :D Is there a place to report bug for eclipse?

NetBeans has that... File menu --> Open Recent File

Since I am a keyboard-power-user, I do Alt-F-F whenever i want to open that menu...in NetBeans (of course). :)

the most frequent Ctrl-key combinations that I use (in Microsoft Windows apps) are Ctrl-A/C/X/V (select all, copy, cut, paste...respectively) and Ctrl-N (open new file) and Ctrl-Y/Z (redo/undo). :)

Does Eclipse and IntelliJ have a multiple file replace?

NetBeans has a multiple file 'search', so I can search project(s) for a certain string/keyword, but I don't use it much.

I use TextPad (text editor) to do multiple file search 'and' replace. It is much faster and less IDE 'GUI' (and bells and whistles).

I just searched google, and stackoverflow tells me that eclipse and netbeans have this feature already, and I think IntelliJ may have it too.
