    java

    does anyone know what the best program is to program with java? Right now I am looking for Visual J++ 6.0, but I heard there were better ones. Any suggestions?

    Yes, there is much better and they are FREE -

    www.netbeans.org

    SUN also has FORTE for java which is FREE but they hide it on their site also, the above basically is FORTE with a nicer GUI.

    Depends if you want something simple, or complex. I used JCreator LE, its kind of like notepad, but has some better options, and highlights syntax etc.

    You can check it out at downloads.com

    //edit:

    http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.ht...search=+Go%21+

    here is the link to download it, if you are interested.

    The JDK is free available from the site of Sun. It is very easy to use.

    but you are an idiot

    J++ isn't Java, it's MS's attempt at ripping java off (or at least its first big one).

    No, If you are learning Java don't get J++. It does not support all the features of Java. Namely swing.

    Use Forte or sun's JDK1.4.1 they are free. Besides when I took training at Sun they use JDK as well.

    I use either Text Pad or Borland JBuilder 6 Personal (free download from Borland's website www.borland.com) - though it is a bit sluggish (it is written in Java afterall), but the real-time syntax error checker is great.
