I was wondering if there is a java forum.. comparable to the quality of cprogramming.com... a place for java programmers to dwell and talk java type stuff.
So where does everyone hang out for their java needs?

Speaking of java, even though im not a big fan, im interesting
in learning it, anyone know a good free compiler? thanks
If you download the JDK, which is free, it comes with a free compiler. How can you be "not a big fan" without even knowing the language?
If you're looking for an IDE, I liked JCreator when I was doing Java stuff, and I think Borland was offering JBuilder for free for awhile. Don't know if they still are.

I like Java personally. Also had JBuilder 3 or 4 a while back, though I cannot recall at this time.
The Brain: There are some nice Java forums out. For Java programming, scripts, and other development talks. I found one of many Java forums that seem somewhat comparable in quality. It's not easy to find a Java Discussion Board that's alive, in most cases.
This one is called JavaRanch. Seems pretty alive, and up-to-date.
If interested in Java Game Programming, there is always javagaming.org
Hope this helps,

Segmentation Fault: I am an error in which a running program attempts to access memory not allocated to it and core dumps with a segmentation violation error. This is often caused by improper usage of pointers, attempts to access a non-existent or read-only physical memory address, re-use of memory if freed within the same scope, de-referencing a null pointer, or (in C) inadvertently using a non-pointer variable as a pointer.
Cool thanks, ah i just saying not a big fan because
comments i made a while back on a question
about java, was just trying to keep the flames away
im sure java a decent language it just wouldnt
be my first choice. but im taking the advice of many
here and consider learning a few more languages.
not that im done with c++ or anything, but since they are
similar i think i could learn them side by side.
thanks for the reply though ill check it out.
>im sure java a decent language it just wouldnt be my first choice.
For what? You shouldn't say that if you don't know anything about the language.

For starters, Java was modeled on C++. The languages are quite similar, though Java is more platform dependant. Although the Java language is modeled on C++, it has several fundamental differences. If you want more detail, you check out the following links:
In closing, as you learn Java, you will encounter many differences, despite some strong similarities.

for compilers: JBuilder X 10 - make sure its 10 or higher as the older ones fsck up on some swing libraries. Eclispse is also free - probably the best one yet; although there is a learning curve if you really want to utilize its full potential. I also use JavaBeans (this one is my least favorite one) because it has a great GUI builder. SOme other ones, JCreator which cheez mentioned, and BlueJ.
