There's Devel::Refactor which does quite a nice job refactoring you code. I think it's integrated to EPIC, and I personnaly use it with NEdit and a quick macro.

    Well, it does a nice job of extract method..... and that's it. Compared to what IntelliJ and Eclipse give the average Java developer that's not a lot :-)

    Fortunately Adam's work with PPI refactoring editor will hopefully open up more interesting possibilities in the future.

      Well, I've installed Eclipse once, with EPIC, I launched it, and waited... waited... waited... Then it appeared. I dug around a bit, and decided that it's definetely too big, too slow for me (besides the fact that it sucks up 250MB or RAM). So I have absolutely no idea of what it may bring to the Java developer :)
      However, I'm eager to see all that PPI will bring us.

        Yeah - it's not exactly light weight :-)

        IntelliJ is considerably snappier and has some demo movies if you're interested.
