My favorite IDE – has a new version now available. (Actually it’s been available for a couple days – I just didn’t get around to typing this up.) You can download it here and read about the features here.Read all of the documentation here and take a video tour of 6.5 here.
Netbeans encompasses a wide range of languages and platforms. One that is missing if you look at the features is Python – but there is and early access release available with python support for 6.5. I cannot wait until this is mature – I think I will have reached a point where I can use a single ide for every situation where I think an ide is appropriate.

Netbeans 6.5 beta is available for download now. The list of features is just incredible. Every release just impresses me more. I think when I shuffle on out of DBA land, and have time to write more code, I may be able to get away with using netbeans for all development. Nice.
Below this is text from their announcement listing new/major features, etc. It does a lot more than what is in this list – but this hits a lot of things that maybe people don’t realize is there.
Netbeans 6.0 is final and if you are a developer – you’d best go get it and check it out. But maybe you are not convinced. Maybe you ask, “What is in this for me, other than a free tool?” Well lets look at a quick list of what technologies are supported by this release of netbeans. Ajax , C/C++ , Databases , Desktop , Editor , GUI Builder , Java EE , Java ME , Java SE , Javascript , Mobile , Profiler , Refactor , REST , Rich Client Platform , Ruby , SOA , SOAP , UML , Web , WSDL , XML.
This is an immensely useful, open, free, multiplatform tool. It is the kind of thing that really gets me excited. (And no – I don’t have the day off – just waiting for some processes to complete and ran into a few interesting things I just had to point out here at me blog.)
