    :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

        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

                      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.

                                      It's been years since I turned my back on Java, but when I was using is I was using a free IDE called Forte. I remember it being good, but I think I remember if being more like the Delphi 4 IDE then the VS IDE. Might be worth googling it to see if it's still around...

                                      NetBeans IDE[^] was marketed by Sun as "Forté for Java" for a while before it was open-sourced. http://www.netbeans.org/about/history.html[^]

                                        For a faster IDE you might try out JCreator. It works pretty fine with low-end systems, and its hugely customizable. But ofcourse you wont get the functionality of VS.Net automatically. You can perhaps tweak JCreator to get closer performance to that of VS.Net. Another drawback was (when I was using JCreator) that there was no functionality to create forms. So we had to build the forms in slower JBuilder and port them on to JCreator, which carried it pretty fine. But... Notepad could be even better :-D uX marks the spot

                                          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

                                          There is a battle brewing here at my office between .NET and Java. We have a VoIP developer that insists I learn Java. He swears by it. Of course most of his stuff is written in native C++ though and he uses VS 2003 for that. I do have a $3500 copy of Borland's JBuilder but haven't even installed it yet. I use VS 2005 to develop all my new stuff. "Half this game is ninety percent mental." - Yogi Berra If you can read thank a teacher, if you can read in English, thank a Marine.
