I agree with gary4gar, this is such an excellent book.

CLR is sitting by my desk now. Seeing this book inspires me to code.

Emacs for me.

Here's my setup: Emacs, DDMS + JSwat, and ant to build.

I have emacs and a terminal open at all times. To build I switch over to the terminal and use ant. Sometimes I'll write a shell script to build+install+run on a phone.

For directory navigation: nav - http://code.google.com/p/emacs-nav/

For code completion: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/JavaCompletion

Building on the command line is simple. Type ant release or ant debug. Or ant install to build + install on phone.

Emacs here, too. high five

My setup is essentially Emacs, DDMS and cscope/find/grep/etc.

I always find Eclipse to be too heavy. I don't do much actual UI coding though (I'm a platform guy), or I might consider it. The ADT UI tools seem to be very powerful and convenient.

Right on. Glad to hear other people are using Emacs too. =)

Interesting considering he works from 8am-2am. How on earth do you come to the conclusion he's not contributing to OS because he chooses to design within the box?

:) hhaha

Great idea! I'm looking forward to your launch.

I agree, the advice is off mark.

Studying Computer Science should be about learning the fundamentals. Algorithms, Discrete Math, Operating Systems, Compilers, Computer Architecture, etc.
