Preferred IDE for Development with The Render Engine

[Kevin Palis]

Hello fellow Render Engine user,

I'm using Render 2.0. I would just like to know which IDE you use to
develop with The Render Engine. I'm using Netbeans 7.0 but being more
involved in Java development and Eclipse PDE before, I'm quite used to
all the useful and comfortable features Eclipse provides. So I find
Netbeans a bit lacking. For example, the code auto-complete and
suggestions can't seem to find some methods within the engine dir (and
they removed the "add Javascript lib" feature so I can't really
manually tell Netbeans where to look). And there's no option to create
a "Javascript Project", so I just use "PHP Project" despite barely
having any PHP code. It would also be nice if I can use the JSDocs the
way you can import javadocs to Eclipse. So which IDE are you using for
your game development with Render?


Thanks for sharing!

Just to chip in, have you ever worked with notepad++ ? I'm on the
RenderEngine mailing list and saw your comment. I'm not a professional
programmer but I've worked with both php and javascript in notepad++
and find it very useful.
