Information on IDE's for Java

Spoiler: [u

BlueJ[/u]]

BlueJ is an integrated Java environment specifically designed for introductory teaching.

Personal Thoughts:

Although it isn't very known and is young in the development stages and is very simple with not as many features as other IDE's...wait..where was I going with this?

Eclipse[/u]]

Eclipse is a multi-language software development environment comprising an integrated development environment (IDE) and an extensible plug-in system. It is written mostly in Java and can be used to develop applications in Java and, by means of various plug-ins, other programming languages including Ada, C, C++, COBOL, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby (including Ruby on Rails framework), Scala, Clojure, and Scheme. The IDE is often called Eclipse ADT for Ada, Eclipse CDT for C/C++, Eclipse JDT for Java, and Eclipse PDT for PHP.

Personal Thoughts:

Eclipse is one of the most "user friendly" IDE's out! Mostly being used for creating scripts for bots in terms to RuneScape related forums.

JCreator[/u]]

JCreator is the development tool for every programmer that likes to do what he does best: programming. It is faster, more efficient and more reliable than other Java IDE’s. Therefore it is the perfect tool for programmers of every level, from learning programmer to Java-specialist.

Personal Thoughts:

I have never actually used this before but I have heard many good things about it.

Spoiler: [u

NetBeans[/u]]

NetBeans refers to both a platform framework for Java desktop applications, and an integrated development environment (IDE) for developing with Java, JavaScript, PHP, Python, Ruby, Groovy, C, C++, Scala and Clojure.

Personal Thoughts:

NetBeans is the one of the most "user friendly" IDE ever created. It's very powerful and anyone that is starting to code in Java should use this.
