"Not even business logic yet, all configuration." - You are doing something wrong then.
With JEE6 you can pretty much start writing code immediately. Without any configuration.
In the most recent Netbeans with Glassfish you can pretty much create a new JEE project and start writing POJOs with business logic, timers or REST endpoints without any configuration except simple annotations.
Netbeans will also auto-reload your code right away on the ap pserver (glassfish) so you can see it in action or debug it immediately.
- kls 16y agoIn the most recent Netbeans with Glassfish you can pretty much create a new JEE project and start writing POJOs This is good advice, Netbeans with Glassfish as of 6.7 really pulled ahead of the pack when it comes to Java. It just works and you get to coding almost immediately. Little things like standard ant build and deployment scripts being generated for you from the beginning, good junit integration, good source control integration, good issue tracking integration and the one I love the most good JAX-RS tools. I can set up a RESTful services that does crude with JPA in about 5 minutes start to finish it really is as rapid to develop services in Netbeans, as it is to go to ROR or grails or one of the other "fast to develop in languages". As for configuration, almost everything can be done with annotations and honestly any environmental stuff should be done with JNDI. I was really at the I hate Java point (like so many people are) until I switched to Netbeans. I was really worried about Oracle picking it up given they already have an IDE but they seem to be accelerating development of netbeans and the new release 6.9 is testimony to that.
