I agree with Ray
Eclipse has more extensibility than Z. Studio , but the question is
do you need it, I preffer doing PHP coding in Studio, I learned a lot
of shortcuts and doing coding is so much faster and less frustrating
than doing it in Eclipse though et the end of the day it is up to
you, in my ream 12 of us, 50% is using eclipse and 50% is using Zend
(those one that are using Eclipse are PHP coders that know Java or C+
+ so they feel more comfortable with Eclipse ... ) , I alos know Java
and I am using Eclipse for that , for me one of the most useful thing
in Zend is (CTRL+D X,C or Apple+D , X, C) which duplicates copies and
paste lines in Studio , switching to Eclipse I just miss those
shortcuts so I am always finding myself going back to Z. Studio

Hi all,
I've tried googling around to find some blogs with decent information
on whether Zend Eclipse is mature enough to make the jump over from
5.5.x just yet.
Admittedly, I've dropped Zend Studio as of late and been writing all
of my code in TextMate -- but at the end of the day when a project is
complex enough, Zend Studio is much more powerful than TextMate with
all of its features and remote debugging capabilities.
Anyhow, I'm curious if it's worth it to check out Zend Eclipse yet.
We're a team of about 5-6 developers and I've been getting asked by a
few colleagues if I've tried it out yet since I'm usually the one to
try out the newer technologies.
I'd love to hear some feedback.
Thanks!

I've recently switched. On my machine (which hasn't been updated
for a long time...) Eclipse runs a lot slower. I only have 1 GB of
RAM. Zend Studio has been running faster for me after I turned off
the SVN integration. I just use the CLI for SVN anyway.
Sometimes in Eclipse it'll slow down so much that I have to slow
down my typing. Mostly that's in CSS files. I don't know if it's
Eclipse in general, but Shift+Tab rarely works, and it drives me
nuts. I've tried to mess with the key bindings to no avail.
Debugging is a lot slower in Eclipse. Some of the default key
bindings in Zend Studio are different in Zend Eclipse as well, but
that was somewhat expected and hasn't bothered me too much.
I've been using the official Zend Eclipse now since the day it came
out. Next week I'm going to switch back to regular Zend Studio.
It was nicer on the RAM and for the most part "Just Worked"(TM).
That's my experience. I'd be interested to hear other people's
experiences.
