JCreator LE is also a good one.

We were forced to use a very crappy one, WebGain's VisualCafe, but I guess they sold it.
And, no, that's not the same gay company messing with some spyware named "Gator".

I "use" JCreator, it's pretty nice. I hate Java, though.

I personally use JCreator, but if you want visual GUI development you should use Borland's JBuilder. It has drag and drop like Visual Studio

I had Sun's NetBeans IDE for a while, never used it, no idea what it is; So, what is it, anyone?

use Eclipse... it's the best IDE I've ever used, although sometimes I think it's developing intelligence and eventually plans on taking over the world.

Eclipse is good for functionality but its not as fast and lightweight as JCreator. It has a good debugger interface though.

yeah that's true it takes 30 secs to load and close... But if you're writing something more than a Hello World program it easily saves you time with its features.

eclipse is good, jcreator is good, and texpad.

Netbeans 3.6 from www.netbeans.org is a very nice and quite powerful IDE (Integrated Development Environment - think Visual Studio for Java), and best of all, its free. It is constantly being updated by the community that uses it (as it is open source gpl licensed), has javadoc generation, code completion, syntax checking, auto code formatting( for nice clean easy to read code), search functions,integrated debug, a decent compiler, and much more.. I use it for all my Java development. I highly recommend it. I've attached a screenshot of the IDE in action if you want to take a look.

I personally prefer Eclipse over NetBeans, but that's me, and if you want something almost identical to VisualStudio, go with JCreator Pro. Regular JCreator is close, but Pro has the intellisense and whatnot, and it only costs like 20 bucks

I was just using Visual Studio as an example of an IDE.

Solo Ace · Posted: Mon Jan 17, 2005 2:06 pm Post subject:

Ah well, I had no idea how to use it and I dislike Java anyway, so I just uninstalled.

None of those are java compilers, you're wanting a java ide which all those basically are.

I've used Eclipse/Netbeans/Jcreator. Personally I will not use netbeans due to it running so slow for me. Eclipse also runs slow, but once running is nice due to some of its features such as auto completion (ctrl+space), refactoring capabilities, and CVS. And I also like Jcreator for simpler projects as it performs very fast and very easily.

Acutally, I'm pretty sure that's the only Java compiler.

http://gcc.gnu.org/java/

wouldn't that qualify as one? :X

There's also jikes

And of course the Blackdown JDK.

Not to mention Microsoft's compiler.
