    Ive decided to try a bit of java (for no reason what so ever , just bored) Ive tried eclipse, which seems to have a shitload of good features, but for some reason it doesnt feel right, I cant put my finger on it but it feels kind of slow'ish and menus flips and flops all over the place. What other IDE's are there for java and is there anyone of those which feels atleast a bit like VS.NET ? //Roger http://www.puzzleframework.com

      that's dumb statement. when the customer tell you to use Java, then you use Java, because the customer is King, and he pays for it...

      :confused: that's what I said. If you are using Java, get over the fact that it is slow and do the work.

            I personally prefer IntelliJ[^]. It completely outclasses Eclipse and Sun's java studio thing. Hey don't worry, I can handle it. I took something. I can see things no one else can see. Why are you dressed like that? - Jack Burton

                            Bull. I've worked with Java devs before. J2EE/Java is no more feature rich than .NET and yet it manages to be 20 times slower. Jeremy Falcon

                                    The point of the story is that this guy had a preconception that the Java implementation of his design must be slow but he was surprised that it wasn't. I think that what's going on in such cases is that the facility of creating a superior design/implementation trumps raw speed. I've had two interviews recently where my interviewer had told me that they had an application recoded in C# from C++ and found the C# version to be faster. Kevin

                                      Go to Oracle's web site. You will need to register yourself with them. And download their free offerings - some are large downloads - some you may order on cd/dvd - for a variety of products including JDeveloper, and their free database. While you are there download their free tutorials and check out their Oracle University. Their offerings are such you could spend all week long there.

                                          Ive decided to try a bit of java (for no reason what so ever , just bored) Ive tried eclipse, which seems to have a shitload of good features, but for some reason it doesnt feel right, I cant put my finger on it but it feels kind of slow'ish and menus flips and flops all over the place. What other IDE's are there for java and is there anyone of those which feels atleast a bit like VS.NET ? //Roger http://www.puzzleframework.com

                                          i did some dev in java a while back. i have not checked out eclipse. we used borland jbuilder. i dind't like jbuilder because it was too complex to manage simple projects. i really liked using intellij idea. google it and then check it out. it's from the same guys that give us resharper. it's great. my $.02 G-
