Hi Sergey,
I'd like to see your demo if it's not an imposition.
Thanks, Dave

Hi Sergey - could you elaborate on that? Why would I want to use jsps in addition to facelets?
Thanks, Dave

Hi - what are the opinions on Facelets instead of JSP for JSF?

You can also use Runtime.exec() to call any external app.

NotePad shouldn't be used for anything remotely serious. Use TextPad or similar on Windows.
InstallTask is probably an optional or third-party task. You'll need to add a jar file to ant. Check here:

and here:

I use NetBeans 5 on OS X. It's simple and attractive, and generally works the way I want it to. It also feels more 'open' to me, where Eclipse feels 'closed'. It also has a better xml editor than Eclipse.
If I were you I'd start out simple. Learn how to deploy and debug a simple web app first (text editor, ant build script, and print statements), then learn how to do it in Eclipse, then try the spring demo.
Fancy tools can save time for experienced programmers but they make learning j2ee harder, not easier. If you jump into all of it at once, you may never really understand the basics.

I found a solution: I keep the netbeans project separate from the source tree and add source paths as needed.
I keep my ant build scripts separate from my netbeans scripts.
However, I'd like the ant build script to be called 'build.xml'.
Is there any way to tell netbeans to use a build script with a different name, for example 'nb-build.xml'?
Thanks, Dave
I think you meant
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -v

Why does no-one mention JDeveloper? Commercial-grade and totally free.
I've tried them all - xcode, netbeans, eclipse, and now jdeveloper. For now jdeveloper is the winner, at least until netbeans is less buggy. Any opinions?
Thanks, Dave

Hi - I'm using OSX, and I've been switching between Eclipse and Netbeans. I just started using JDeveloper, and I'm impressed - especially by its speed.
Does anyone have comments on JDeveloper?
Thanks, Dave
