IDE对Spring框架的支持； 他们值得使用吗？

Question

I'm using Intellij IDEA Community Edition for IDE, and I like it a lot. However, it does not have any special "Spring support" (plug-ins/tools).

My next project uses Spring (which I'm not very familiar with), and I'm wondering whether I should consider changing my IDE from early on; eg to SpringSource eclipse/Intellij IDEA Professional.

Do you guys have any experience with these IDE-built-in Spring support? Is it worth using?

EDIT: Sorry for the confusion. I use the community version of Intellij IDEA. I'm right now downloading the Ultimate version :)

Answer 1

I assume that you're using the Community edition of IntelliJ, which doesn't support Spring, but the commercial version does, and its support is absolutely stellar.

You can also use SpringSource Tool Suite, or Eclipse with the STS plugins installed, which has very good Spring support as well.

If you're using XML configuration, then using a plugin to get "static typing" and make XML resistant to breakages/refactorings is IMO a mandatory feature (Spring support means more but this is one of the most important features for me).

Answer 3

我建议使用Eclipse和Netbeans，因为它们对Spring都有很好的支持。

Answer 4

这是错误的信息，Intellij IDEA对Spring提供了最好的最健壮的直观支持 ，而在没有IDEA带来的支持的大中型项目上，Spring几乎无法使用。

This is simply wrong. IntelliJ has terrific Spring support, the best there is. You have to buy a license, but it's worth the money.
