关于 MOTODEV

对于Android这个小机器人，摩托、三星、HTC无疑是三巨头，而摩托这个靠Android咸鱼翻身的昔日巨人无疑更是意义非凡。

对于Android的支持上，基本已经确定了MOTO的首发地位，新特性与高性能的突破基本都是由MOTO来做，MOTO对小绿人的支持也是相当给力，前阵子去eclipse官网下

伽利略，发现有个MOTODEV的东西单独出来了，瞅瞅，竟然是MOTO针对自己的ANDROID产品的IDE环境，下来一看发现原来还是个eclipse...

现在水平还没能有机会去发现它的新特性，但是今天闲得蛋疼想看看人们对这个私生子的看法，中文关于MOTODEV的东西基本没有，最后在StackOverflow上看到个帖子还满有意思。

前面是几位在讨论为什么要用MOTODEV，然后突然来了这么一位“

I'm the product manager and tech lead for MOTODEV Studio, so let me jump in and try to help. Sorry about the delay, I wasn't aware any conversations about MOTODEV Studio were occurring on StackOVerflow. I'll make a point of following the conversations here as well.

MOTODEV Studio is a branded version of the IDE. It is not an RCP application. We integrate the Google ADT plugins into the Eclipse Core along with CVS, SVN, and Mylyn. You will need to add connectors for your specific backends if you use Mylyn as there are way to many choices for us to bundle all of them. We support Studio through our discussion boards at http://developer.motorola.com and if you visit, you won't see my teams' responses being "it works on my machine".

The next version of MOTODEV Studio comes out next week (~March 23). It will install as a single application and (despite what Fred suggests) you can also use the Eclipse update mechanism to install the Studio plugins into an existing Eclipse shell. We've also added support for 64-bit VMs on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Linux support is tested on Ubuntu and Fedora, but it may or may not work on others.

In addition to the Google ADT plugins, we add our own features, as DroidIn mentioned. Some of these you may find useful and others you may not. We're not in competition with Eclipse or Google on any of this--I and my team are committers and leaders on Eclipse OSS projects and we work with the Google tools team on joint efforts. If you like MOTODEV Studio, we'd love to hear from you and find ways to improve it. If it's not your cup of tea, that's fine, too. Let us know if there's anything we can do to change your mind.”

来头很大，但是看完后感觉是什么都没说。。。给我的感觉基本就是MOTO把eclipse做了些本地化(针对MOTO自己的习惯---一些经典的版本控制的支持---很大公司的作风...)，不知道出于什么目的还以这样一个身份release出来，大概是出于对android手机同质化的一个反应吧。

目前靠过去应该没什么大用，招聘的话貌似要拿个绿卡才现实，还是用着ECLIPSE，期待MOTO的下一步动作。

对了，附上这个帖子
