What do you guys suggest?  I am using JCreator at school right now, and I had it installed on my computer as well, but I took it off.  Do you guys have any other compilers you think are better that are also free?

Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Eclipse is nice if you want an entire IDE to go with it. Kinda slow though, because it's written in Java (it's not all that bad though).

Currently I'm using TextPad and javac.

You might be right about that, Joe.

Yeah, you aren't looking for a "computer", there is only (sorta) one Java compiler. 

You're talking about an IDE, or a development environment. 

I personally use Eclipse.  It's heavy on resources, but it just has a lot of features that I can't find anywhere else (besides vim), and allows really easy code refactoring.

Alright, I will check that out.  Thanks guys. :)

I'd say Eclipse for more advanced programs.

I messed with Eclipse, but it's confusing me.  I am not use to it. :(

Ooh well, I will keep playing around with it. :D

this is kinda old...and i got bored...but the IDE i used when I was taking java programming was JCreator.  Just make a new java file and you can compile and run it with ease.  Nowadays eclipse just seems so much more godlier than it

Currently I'm using TextPad and javac.

I like it much, now that I'm more experienced with it. It has built in calls to javac (control-1), java (control-2), and appletviewer (control-3).

Yes, javac pretty much is the java compiler that people use. There are others, such as GCJ. GCJ is a compiler package that is handy to have as it can convert java source files to executables.

As for IDEs, Eclipse owns. Textpad and Notepad2 are good if all you want is a good text editor for Java.
