Rating: - This book adds lots of value
Although I generally tend to "lurk" and read reviews rather than write them, I felt compelled to write one for this Zend Studio for Eclipse book.
I am a professional PHP programmer, and have been a Zend Studio 5.x user for two years. I knew every nook and cranny of Zend Studio 5.x. I had only praise for the product.
When Zend released Zend Studio for Eclipse, I switched over to it. All of a sudden I felt incompetent. I literally couldn't figure out how to do anything, it ... Read More
Rating: - Get max from Zend Studio for Eclipse
Nice book, that helps me speed up PHP developing in Zend Studio for Eclipse.
Good introduction into Eclipse IDE and advanced PHP development topics like debugging or unit testing.
Rating: - Usuitable for Any Skill Level
I cannot recommend this book to any target audience.
For experienced developers the book lacks any detailed information on how (for example) to get remote debugging working or to integrate any version control software. The sparse overviews provided have nothing you won't already know if you've ever used any IDE.
For beginners the book is rife with the kind of errors (the text does not agree with the sample code or images) that will drive them crazy.
Rating: - Great book for those new to Eclipse
I've never been a big fan of Eclipse but I now use Zend Studio so I had to get used to it. I could not have done it without this book. Eclipse operates so differently than any other IDE I've used that it was like visiting a foreign land but this book was my translator.
Thanks Pete and Ian, I owe you guys a beer if we ever meet in real life.
