I've a java project to do at work, just a teeny one,
but for some reason, management wants me to use an open source IDE.
So, the obvious question becomes, Netbeans or Eclipse?
Don't know anything about either, and kind of like it that way.
If I had my 'druthers', I would just stick the XEmacs and be done with it.
I find it very annoying when non-tech people tell me how to do tech!
My recommendation

I'd go with Eclipse, mainly because then you can do both Java and Perl, assuming you grab the Perl plugin. Also, I have no clue what Netbeans is.

JDE
Having played this game recently myself (eclipse and NetBeans anyways), I'd recommend Emacs' JDE mode. Setting it up takes a bit of work, but once it finds your javadoc and the compile-server runs, it's perfectly usable.
