[java] Compilers, It's sick!

you hwo looking here can you write which comiler you use, it will be very rare

Huh? I did not understand virtually any of that. You can download the Java SDK at java.sun.com.

I MENT:
WHICH COMILER IS BEST, WHICH COMPILER DO YOU USE AND HOW DO I DOWNLOAD IT!!!

There's no "best" compiler. If there were, everyone would use the same compiler, and there'd only be one.

I use the Sun java compiler.

YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE JAVA SDK AT JAVA.SUN.COM!!!

If you are looking for a good IDE, try netBeans or Eclipse.

Forum FAQ

If youre beginner i would suggest to choose "Microsoft J# Express"
Available Here!
Its Java IDE for Windows with full NET support, and compiler that creates .exes instead of decompilable Clasess. (propably these exes are decompilable too)

Sun created Java. Sun's Java SDK compiles Java. Netbeans is NOT a compiler, it is simply an IDE. It does USE the Java SDK compiler. Perhaps you are looking for an IDE and don't know what you're talking about? I would suggest Eclipse in that case.

And then when you are not a beginner anymore -- try using just Ant a good source editor, and the command line.

Is Visual Java the same that Java?

I use NetBeans, nothing wrong with it as an IDE.

Is there any compiler that is easy to use?

Its the same Java, only differences are that it has own VM from Microsoft, and has NET support. I used Net Beans, JCreator (Lite), but they didnt suit my needs. Visual Java (Java Shar or J#) is the way to go. Its free till November 2006, so get your copy now! :)

Best features:
-Great debugging (Like in MS VC++)
-Speed
-Auto Complete for everything!

The default Sun SDK compiler is extremely easy to use. To compile class foo, you simply use javac foo.java.

http://www.jcreator.com/ is best in my opinion.

Eclipse with JDT (Java Development Tools) is probably the best you can get. It's free, fast and easy to use. Eclipse has it's own implementation of a Java compiler. You will need a JRE (Java Runtime Environment) to execute Eclipse itself and the .class files produced by Eclipse.

You can get Eclipse from here:
http://www.eclipse.org/

J# is *not* Java. Microsoft aren't allowed to call it Java because it is incompatible and doesn't conform to the spec. J# is really C# with a slightly different syntax.

I second that. Fastest IDE out there.

You should also check out this site. Just kidding.

Pardon me OrangeTang, but you should know that Microsoft has a license agreement with Sun Microsystems.

Visual J++ is not a language, it is a development environment for writing Java applets and applications. Why is it called "Visual J++"? Just as Microsoft Visual C++ was a progressive move for the C language, Visual J++ provides a progressive shift for the Java language. Visual J++ is one step better than Java. It is a Java plus Component Object Model (COM). The Visual J++ compiler and Type Library Wizard allow Java programs to access language-independent COM libraries and controls.
