Free tools for J2EE development

Hi
I'm new to Java and here one question, that is very important to me now
Which tools can I use to develop J2 EE applications?
My question concerns mostly to tools, that can compile/build java files into classes? debug it and build then jar-files
Is there any free!!!, handy and reliable software for this purpose?
Any help will be appreciated
Thank you in advance
Yurij

NetBeans, as mentioned in previous posts is probably a good choice if you want totally free J2EE development. Sun provides many tools for the J2EE developer to write and test J2EE code.
Eclipse, while very good, is lacking in J2EE features. I didn't understand this until I started a new contract where they used WSAD (WebSphere Studio Application Developer) from IBM (Eclipse with J2EE support via plug-ins. It's roughly $4K per seat so definately not free. But havign Eclipse expirience did help me get up to speed quickly.
You might also check out MyEclipse (www.myeclipseide.com). It has J2EE plug-ins that provide for J2EE development and it costs roughly $30 per year (subscription). Not a bad deal, IYAM.
I think Borland still offers a free IDE but I haven't heard much about it these days.
There are others, but the top has to be NetBeans and Eclipse these days.
Enjoy!

  • The tool for testing developed system

    We have already developed a system base on WebAS.Is there  some test tool for the developed system such as J Unit in Java?Thanks.

    If your intentions is to test user interfaces or scenarios eCatt is the best choice. If you want to ensure code quality ABAP Unit and Code Inspector are suited well.

  • Good Development tools for j2ee

    Dear all,
    i am new to J2EE, i think it is very difficult to develop and debug j2ee app.
    Since, i need to open the j2ee server, deployment tools, text editor, command line for compiled. So many things, moreover when each time i changed a java bean or servlet, i need to open the command line to compile it again, then use the deployment tools to redeploy to see the result. This is my development practices for j2ee. I don't know it is wrong or not, Do anyone have any other suitable practice to develop j2ee, or any other good developmen tools? thanks you

    Actually if u take .net only 1 frame work 1 server 1 tool for database connectivity
    but J2EE is a open source so there would be
    multiple frame work, .....
    more choices and every one alter anything according to their wish
    so more confusions more problems more maintenance more jobs ...
    let me come to the point
    there are many IDE's for J2EE
    eclipse, netbeans, ...
    u can use those things ... but i dont know whether those things can satisfy u

  • What are best free tools for a Oracle development DBA?

    Hi, I have been production dba for years. I am familiar with full cycle of database installation, configure,backup recovery, etc.
    Now my role is going to change to development dba soon. I have no problem to create instances. Then to the data modeling, data normalization, etc, what kind of tools I can use?
    Any good suggestions or documents you can provide?
    Thanks in advance.

    The only good tools for normalizing your database are you own intelligence, knowledge, and experience. A great place to feed your knowledge and borrow someone else's experience is in Ken Down's blog, The Database Programmer.
    As for PL/SQL development tools, try SDDM's older sister, SQL Developer.

  • Tools for SAP development work management?

    Hi fellow SAP developers!
    As you know, in a big software company the management of development work can be a challenge. Everyone should be able to see quickly who is doing what, who is available for new work, how did some old requests get solved and where is their documentation. We are talking about more than just some simple ticket management system here. It would be a central repository and work management tool for years to come.
    I am interested to hear some suggestions for good tools that can be used for development work management in SAP world.
    - It should be a tool where development requests can be input, reviewed, approved, documented and stored.
    - It should support storing attachments
    - It should support a project structure, under which the development items are created.
    - It should be searchable and have different views to the development requests (for example by project, request raiser, developer, status etc.)
    - It should have some kind of approval system or workflow.
    - It should also support email notifications when the status or person assignment changes.
    - It should run on large corporate network (accessible in intranet, perhaps via browser).
    - A nice bonus would be a mobile client access for urgent cases
    I'm keen to hear any proposals, even if not all the points in the wishlist are fullfilled
    I'm interested to hear any comments on your exeperiences on various work  management tools. What worked and what not?

    Well, a SAP based product would be efficient as it is integrated and there would be no need for additional licenses etc.
    I have to investigate the Solution manager offerings more, if that indeed could handle this task. Have you got any further information or experience?
    Rally sounds interesting as well! Are there any other tools like that, proven good in SAP development?
    For simply using Abap workbench, I'm afraid that is not good enough for what I'm after. How would you manage for example work queues, project based issue views and extensive solution documentation with it? And everything would have to be searchable and visible for also for non-technical managers who do not log in to SAP.

  • Database access tool for Java Development

    Hi,
    A couple of days back, our SAP's database (MSSQL) was corrupted and downed the Java Stack.
              During the Java development, normally after a newly created table was deployed via Java Dictionary, Java developer will access the database via the MSSQL Enterprise Manager to view/delete/update data. Unlike the ABAP development, all database access was done via SE16 in SAPGUI. It was believed that the Java Development kind of direct access to the database via the MSSQL Enterprise Manager was causing some MSSQL tables to be corrupted, and thus downed the Java Stack.
    1. Is there any tool like SE16 to access database during the Java Development?
    2. If no, what kind of recommendation/tool to access database for Java Development?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
    julius

    Julius,
    There are no industry recommended open source DB tools.
    Normally it depends upon the developer preferences that how he/she wants to see the tool usability.
    I can suggest you to go through the below link:
    http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=SQL+Tools
    You can find many open source SQL tools, which you have to test and select one among them.
    I can suggest you to use:
    1) TOra
    2) Easy SQL
    3) SQuirrel
    "Choose a Tool which is easy to use and efficient, Dont worry about Look n Feel"
    Best of Luck

  • Migration Verifier Tool for SQL Developer Migrations?

    Hi all,
    The old Migration Workbench has an optional add on verification tool to verify migrations to Oracle.
    I am looking for a similar migration verifier tool for the SQL Developer migration process.
    Does one currently exist for SQL Developer migration tools?
    Regards,
    Ben Prusinski

    Hi Ben,
    The old migration verifier seems to be at:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//dmv/index.html
    Sue Harper (Product Manager) would be the person to comment further probably through SQLDeveloper statement of direction:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/files/sqldeveloperstatementofdirection.htm
    I do not see anything there.
    There is a tools->database diff wizard which I have not looked into in detail and I doubt that applies for migrations.

  • Visual tool for trigger development

    I am looking for a visual tool for trigger (or PL/SQL) development that includes metadata. It should be a kind of ETL tool but specific for triggers. That would help a lot when documenting triggers, checking for dependencies, data lineage, etc.
    Anyone know any tool from Oracle or out there?

    How about Oracle's very own SQLDeveloper?
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/sql/index.html
    Other option would be TOAD by quest

  • Free stuff for OCA(developer)

    Hi all,
    Where can i get some free stuff for OCA certification
    thanks in advance

    Be nice. Ask a reasonable question with details. Don't make us guess what you want or what level of competence/incompetence you currently have. Make us guess, and we will simply end up either ignoring you or despising you.
    Also ... it is better to ask in the Certification forum as that is where these kinds of questions belong. As an OCP candidate, your first task is to find that forum.
    And .. you might want to search the OTN site or the Oracled Education site for links to Certification details.
    A competent DBA asks with examples of what they have tried.

  • [Arduino] Best tools for Arduino development

    Hello,
    The IDE doesn't looks like it fits my needs I'm looking for a more Arch Linux/KISS way to play with my Arduino.
    Basically I would like to use the editor of my choice and use some build/upload scripts.
    Any advices, recommendations?
    Thanks.

    I'm not familiar with any other way of working with Arduino code than using the IDE, however if you are feeling somewhat adventurous, you can always use the gcc-avr/avr-libc toolchain and write code for the micro-controller in C.  This is advantageous as you would be free to choose the IDE or text editor of your liking for creating the software, and by familiarizing yourself with the C language, you may advance to writing code for other micro-controller platforms. 
    The down side of this is that you are loosing all of the "rapid and easy" development awesomeness of the Arduino language.
