    Simple question??

    Hello Gurus,

    I new to Java and I was wondering is there an editor with debugger like VC++ for Java? If anyone know I would really appreciate because right now I'm writing my Java program with a normal text editor. Thank you!

    Marci Sarwan ([email protected])

    P.S. I'm a student so if there's a free Java editor that I can download I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

    Marci,

    There are several programs of this type, but I would recommend you to use a normal Text Editor. The reason: you would learn Java much better. I use a text edito that has the ability to complile java code and it would also tell you the line numbers with errors in your compiled code. It is called TextPad, and it comes for free, as an evaluation copy, in a cd included in this book: Core Java, by Cay S. HorstMann & Gary Cornell. or download a copy from www.textpad.com

    If you want to ever do pure java (code that will run on any system), don't use VJ++.

    I think you must not begin with Visual J++, because it uses a lot of features specific to microsoft, you can download an evaluation version of JBuilder on Borland's site. The code produced is closest to pure java.

    You might also want to take a look at IBM's Visual Age for Java.... It has a lot of nice features but again as someone has said a simple text editor works fine and is great for really learning... Theres one diter that I really like but unfortunately I forgot the name and where to get it so Ill reply back when I have that info....

    You can get a small version of IBMs Visual AGE for Java, in this version you have no enterprise beans but the Integrated Development Environment is very good.
    You can get a free download for example at
