IDE Watch: Echo2 Module for NetBeans

We can see the beginnings of IDE support for Echo2 in NetBeans. This isn't close to the commercial plugin for Eclipse provided by NextApp, which, among other things, provides a widget tree and property editor that eases UI assembly. But the nbecho2support module does a couple of useful things for you. First, it will create an Echo2 webapp project for you with Echo2, Echo2Extras and the EchoPointNG libraries already included. Also, the web.xml file is already configured (though you will have to edit the default index.jsp to redirect to the /app url).

The one Echo2 specific filetype that can be created is the Echo2 style sheet, default to blank. So, definitely a useful module for those who want to work with NetBeans, with plenty of room for improvement.
