Can I use Android SDK with NetBeans instead of Eclipse? I absolutely hate the eclipse editor and would prefer to use NetBeans. Does anyone know how or if this works?

Don't think so.

Yes you can, but NetBeans misses a form designer for Android that Eclipse does have. So unless you need that you can use NetBeans just fine. Eclipse is more integrated with the Android SDK though.

+1

Especially since the "new" ADT bundle download link. Its so much more easier to setup (since it is already set up for you :P).

Wicker: I agree with the above posts. Could you and should you are two different things. Could you? Yes. Should you? No. I am not sure what your aversion is to eclipse, but there are much worse IDEs out there than eclipse.

@htbaa
I will just have to deal with my dislikes for eclipse and use it for the sake of the form designer
