I tried it, it’s wonderful. I’m new to IDEA. I have been using NetBeans for many years. But because of the it’s poorly supporting of groovy, i finally want to try something else. I tried IDEA, I realize the groovy support is wanderful and also it seemlessly supports POM projects. I think it’s worth to switch to IDEA. During the trial, I have one question, in NetBeans, when change a JSP file, tomcat will automatically pick up the change. But in IDEA, seems not, to apply the change, IDEA seems build the war again. Which is quite slow. The same problem for applying a java code change. Is there any configuration to make apply JSP/Java change faster and easier.
