jVi in NetBeans

Hi guys. I'm choosing what to use: Eclipse or NetBeans. NetBeans has better vim plugin - jVi, but, as I see, it doesn't work with my own ~/.vimrc file. But in eclipse and VimPlugin for it everything is perfect. So are there any ways to use my vimrc settings for NetBeans with jVi?

+2  A: 

You won't be able to. jvi uses the files in $HOME/.netbeans/${version}/config/Preferences/org/netbeans/modules/ for configuration. Namely it uses jvi.properties for any values that you've set that differ from the default. Otherwise it uses the defaults that are tucked away inside of some .jar in $HOME/.netbeans/${version}/modules .

Is it possible to add vim plugins or syntax files that jVi can use?
Steven Rosato
Negative. jVi is really just the vi keybindings (and a subset of commands for command mode) applied to the Netbeans Editor, as opposed to an actual vi instance. All of the syntax highlighting is still done internal to Netbeans. jVI will not be able to handle vi plugins either since it really isn't a true vi instance.
