Netbeans has Realy Bad FTP support , Forces me to download all Files even before I can continue
- by Vivek
Hello Friends , have started using Netbeans recently after using Aptana, phpdesigner and Notepad++ .
I love Netbeans for it's speed and it has almost everything I want except for the fact that the FTP support is really Bad.
To start working on a FTP server , I have to download all the files to my localhost first which is such a waste of bandwidth & if those files are many ie. 1000+ files then it's really annoying .
I have tried mounting remote FTP as local filesystem in Windows and then using Netbeans to access it but that does'nt work out too ..
If anybody using netbeans a lot for PHP development can guide me on this , then I would be highly obliged.. this trivial problem is keeping me from using this awesome IDE .
Thanks & Regards .
