Apex Trigger directly into Production

Is it possible to create Apex trigger directly into Production usin Force.com IDE Or Should it be created first in the Sandbox and then moved to Production?

 

Please advise.

You can't create or edit apex code directly in Production environments. You have to develop the code in a Sandbox or Developer Edition org and deploy it to Production.

aalbert,

 

Until now I was also thinking [and saw the behavior many times] that Apex classes cannot be edited in production. However, today I was actually able to edit apex classes directly in Production through the Force.com IDE. Did you notice the same behavior?
