Feature changed by: Tomáš Chvátal (scarabeus_iv) Feature #310346, revision 8 Title: java development toolchain - openSUSE Distribution: New + openSUSE Distribution: Rejected by Tomáš Chvátal (scarabeus_iv) + reject reason: This is feature asking for too many pies at once. + Some parts are already present. Oracle JDK can't be distributed due to + license, but as a final step someone would have to create pattern file. + Which is just list of packages, thus feel free to create that if you + still desire this feature. Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Federico P (ingchip) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Since opensolaris "died" I'm looking for a platform perfectly suitable for java development I'd need the last versions of netbeans , mysql + workbench , mercurial + android + open jdk + ORACLE JDK All of these components can be installed separately, but I'd like a distribution "one click developer" Possibly with self - update of the last issues . Discussion: #1: x c (croco001) (2010-08-23 12:55:56) That would be great! Many administrators still using Ubuntu or something because the needed time to setup an openSUSE for a java developer (or other programming language) is too long. It is not the spended time to install commonly dev-software rather to configurate and update. Annoying! Too much time. Sure that many corporations using other distros. #2: Xavier Callejas (xcallejas) (2010-08-24 01:50:56) Hi, I'm a Java developer since years, and I have used SUSE/openSUSE for java developing since years too. My production server environment is OpenSolaris :s , I will testing Nexenta for this in the future. - I use Netbeans (I always like to download my self because I would prefer to get the last version, repos. not always has the last version of Netbeans, but I understand that Netbeans is in the repos.). - Glassfish (I also like to download my self, because the same reazons, but there is always a bundle of Glassfish + Netbeans to download; do not know if GF is in the repos.). - Java (JRE/JDK), I do not use OpenJDK at all, I like Sun/Oracle implementations. openSUSE has OpenJDK as stock, but I found very easy to swtich with YaST software manager, just uninstall the OpenJDK and install the Oracle one (this is in the update repo. or the online oss repo, I think). - MySQL: I always use the stock openSUSE version, it is so easy to beging to work with MySQL in openSUSE. I do not work with mercurial, do not know about Android either. Just my two cents. xavier.- #3: Federico P (ingchip) (2010-08-24 11:35:34) (reply to #2) I appreciated a lot Solaris because of its peculiarities dtrace zfs... but especially for its velocity with Java. So I'd really like to find the same velocity with Linux What I'm looking for and I still haven't found is an operative system for developers. I'd like to have an interface where I can decide what to use, what I need and then that is able to install everything I need automatically. Maybe also with different manageable profiles. A support tool consacrated to developers might be the best. I don't know what could be the best , I only know that personalize every time the development environment is always time wasting... #4: Thomas Schmidt (digitaltomm) (2010-12-20 17:01:13) It would probably be the best to open package requests for each of your needed packages to be tracked seperately. #5: Stephen Shaw (decriptor) (2010-12-20 21:17:30) I'm starting to look into this. I'm not necessarily looking at netbeans, but eclipse. I'm sure netbeans wouldn't be that much harder once everything else is done. We could use some help/input. We'll be in #opensuse-java on freenode and there is the opensuse-java@opensuse.org mailing list. #6: Vyacheslav Blinov (dant3) (2013-05-15 20:01:19) It could be great to add Intellij Idea to distribution as well, since they have open sources in GPL. Thats greatest Java IDE as from my POV. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310346
