Stephen said:I was forced to use Eclipse recently. Dreadful. I really disliked it. I
never got as far as wanting to refactor things. I couldn't wait to stop
using it.
Total agreement. My point is that productivity gains from refactoring
tools are the least of your worries. Hiring good staff that know how to
write, test and debug software is very much more important than the
amount of time a refactoring tool will save.

Well, I have been using it for 2 years now, and while I still prefer
Python "big-time" to Java, I have really grown to love Eclipse. To each
his own I guess.
I agree you shouldn't bank on productivity gains from refactoring tools.
And I agree they are definitely no kind of replacement for good
people. I just think it is silly not to benefit from them.
