We cover Intellij and Eclipse in Chapter 13 of the book. Intellij works fine with XDoclet, but it doesn't provide any special functionality out of the box. One thing you might be interested is the
XDoclet live templates provided by the XDoclet project. It lets you tab expand "ejb.bmp", for example, to create @ejb.bean type="BMP" name="YourBean" jndi-name="ejb/YourBean" in the current context. It's pretty hand if you are an Intellj user.
