eman7613 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 netbeans might be a little heavy for a laptop (dont know if yours is an oldi or not). But if it is, jcreator & inelij are both lighter weight and work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaizen_0 Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 thanx but netbean works good on it so it will do for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strife25 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Eclipse is also good for java development and is plug in based, so it allows you to download plugins that allow you to develop and have an IDE for other languages, like PHP, J2EE, or C++. Although the php IDE is ok imo, and the C++ one requires cygwin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postal32 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Ecipse is good to use, lotta features Theres also Jgrasp that does the job and nice and simple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 NetBeans is an excellent choice for the beginner for ease of setup JGrasp is buggy, but also a good choice for the beginner because it is so primitive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaizen_0 Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 just wanted to say cause i just saw that this is still here, that i found one better, its called Dr.Java. its works and is simple, not setup needed at all, just download, open the program (u dont even need to install it so u can put it on a flash drive and take it with u) and program.

bbq Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I enjoy JCreator for an IDE... however i linux Eclipse is the go... As for downloading the compiler and all that... www.java.sun.com go to downloads and then Java SE install and add environmental variables if you want to use cmd... there is a netbeans and sun java combo there to download that should automate it for you...
