Eclipse is the do-it-all code editor
- Eclipse is very powerful and has a wide range of plugins that can be used to customize it and add additional functionality. For example, you can write code in a wide variety of languages, debug your code, commit it to your code repository, and manage your database schema and data all without ever leaving Eclipse.
- As open-source software, it's available for free.
- It has (or had) a very large user base so if you ever encountered issues, it's likely you're not the only one and you can find help from someone else who's experienced the same issue.
- It runs on top of Java so it's available on almost any platform.
- Compared to newer, more popular code editors today, Eclipse feels very large, bloated, and slow.
- I've had compatibility issues in the past where certain 3rd party plugins I've relied on weren't compatible with newer versions of Eclipse and prevented me from being able to update to the latest versions. Or sometimes two plugins would conflict with each other or cause issues when used together. Occasionally I get random errors that are difficult to troubleshoot or identify the root cause.
- Starting Eclipse always seems to take a really long time, it can consume a lot of memory, and sometimes runs slowly.
- We've never had to buy a commercial ColdFusion IDE during the 14 years I've been a ColdFusion developer which has helped us to save money.
- Over the years on multiple occasions, my Eclipse installation has somehow become corrupted and quit functioning properly. This caused a loss of productivity for a couple of days while I rebuilt it and reconfigured all of my plugins and settings. Eventually, I started keeping backups of my Eclipse folders so that I could more easily recover from such events.
- Overall, it's been a critical and valuable tool for our ColdFusion web development.
