netbeans vs zend studioJune 03, 2009 i have used zend studio for eclipse for quite some time now and am happy and biased towards it. recently, a colleague convinced me to give netbeans 6.7rc1 a try as a PHP IDE. as netbeans is not an IDE specifically designed for PHP i was very doubtful...then again eclipse is not aimed at PHP either. after a couple days use, i have been pleasantly surprised. preliminary comparision of netbeans 6.7 RC 1 vs zend studio for eclipse 6.1 netbeans 26.1 MB download free phpunit easily integrated - http://www.netbeans.org/kb/docs/php/phpunit.html new phpunit files - nice feature to setup test folder and subdirectories are magically created for you. very nice code coverage - easily installed http://forums.netbeans.org/topic6545.html nice formatting - alt-shift-f somewhat cryptic error messages, unless you look at output console (ctrl-4) zend studio 328 MB download 30 day trial, after which many features are disabled - $399 for a license new phpunit files - in directory phpunit bundled, disabled after 30 days code coverage - bundled, disabled after 30 days nice formatting - ctrl-shift-f detailed review, rank to come.... |

everytime i just want to put it to rest
the voices rage, won't let it sleep at all
i've been searching for an angel
i've been looking for a sign
