| NetBeans: The Complete Overview
|
| In this tech talk, sponsored by Sun Microsystems, NetBeans Architect Pavel Buzek
|
| explains how Java EE 5 simplifies development and how Netbeans adds more ease of
|
| use with code completion for database mapping, wizards for building complete
|
| applications from existing data, and editing annotations. (October 31, Tech
|
| Talk)

| JavaTools Newsletter Special Feature: The 30 Days IDE Swap Experiment
|
| Wouldn't be interesting if an Eclipse fan would use NetBeans for a while and
|
| vice-versa, so we could see what features the users miss most on one IDE and
|
| then, in the end, provide information to make both IDEs better? Four volunteers
|
| from four different countries accepted the challenge of using a different IDE
|
| for 30 Days. Here are their journals during the experiment and their final
|
| interviews. If you ever thought about moving to another IDE, their stories will
|
| give you some interesting information.

| jMaki Support in NetBeans
|
| Ludo has extended his jMaki support module. It now includes wizards that let you
|
| specify the layout of your JSP page. No need to know about CSS stylesheets,
|
| because this wizard generates all the necessary CSS styles for you. Check it
|
| out here:

|
| Web developers and module development
|
| You're a web developer, creating some JSP pages and servlets and so on. Do you
|
| know how easy it is to add new functionality to the IDE? Here, in Geertjan's
|
| blog, you find out how to create a new menu item that adds <b></b> tags around a
|
| selected text:

| Charles Ditzel and Looking Glass
|
| "NetBeans is a great environment to work on Looking Glass," writes Charles
|
| Ditzel in his blog
|
| (<<a href="http://cld.blog-city.com/netbeans_ide_55_tutorial__developing_looking_glass_sof">http://cld.blog-city.com/netbeans_ide_55_tutorial__developing_looking_glass_sof</a>>

|
| Project Looking Glass with NetBeans"
