Differences between IDE and CDE
The major difference between the CDE and the Curl Classic IDE is the ability of the CDE to show errors while coding. Further, editor tooltips and various kinds of annotations provided by Eclipse are available with the CDE. Of course, tools included with the Classic IDE, like the Visual Layout Editor and the HTTP Monitor, are all available in the CDE as well.
