Help to find a Java Text Editor PLEASE
HELP! I am in need of a program that will compile, execute and have an "autocomplete" sort of thing to help me with learning java. If there are any programs out there sort of like how Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2003-2005. But I need a program specifically for Java because I am learning. Please Reply as soon as possible. Thanks.
Yes, that's what I meant.
When I first started programming in Java (I already had exp with C/C++ and command line tools), I was looking for a IDE that had lots of features, two of which were Drag-an-Drop GUI editing and visual debugging. I admit it, I suffer from the Visual Studio way of doing things.
I downloaded Eclipse and Netbeans and tried both. Eclipse was faster loading but seemed spartan with its features. I also didn't quite understand the way Eclipse handled projects. It was a terminology thing really. Also, I was not familiar with all the various subproject's for eclipse and lacked time to figure it out.
I then tried Netbeans which loads slower but had everything I wanted in an IDE. Also calling projects 'projects', was easier for me to wrap my head around. That was in version 4 days. Since then, Netbeans has added alot of add on modules and features that are truly impressive for a free IDE. There are third party modules available on the web and adding them to the IDE is usually a 2 or 3 click process... Easy.
I haven't checked out Eclipse lately but I'm sure they are also doing things to improve their IDE as well. Competition between the two is a good thing, it just benefits the community as a whole.

Which is the best java text editor? I am using Forte for Java but was told JBuilder is better.
Also does anyone know how to change the view in the Forte program. Ive got seperate windows everywhere.I am not using Forte, so I can't answer your second question. As for the first, search the forum, please. That has been asked and answered frequently. The are quite a few tools out there that people like to use and every single one has it's advantages and drawbacks. I would never say that one tool is the best there is, but that I like it the most. An editor that one person finds useful and is comfortable with, is often disliked by someone else... I myself do not like JBuilder, for example. I'd say, try out a few and decide whatyou like the most.

Hi i am a java student and i dont really know where this question but my question is
Is there a java text editor and java programs compiler for a usb drive?It is possible, though a bit of a hack. You can install the JDK on your computer at home and copy the directory to your USB drive. When you want to use it at school, simply add the bin directory of the JDK to the system path and you can use the commandline to compile and run your applications.

I have been looking for a good macintosh Java text editor for my newphew. His high school is primary macintosh (Mac OS X) workstation based, therefore in order to code/learn Java, he understands that he can use a simple text editor.
Is there a good text editor for the macintosh? Maybe a comparison is BBEdit for web site development, something with that power.
Or is there a better simple editor in the terminal he can use?
Thank you for reading this post.You can use TextEdit in plain text mode, or you can go to http://developer.apple.com/ and get Apple's free Project Builder IDE of OS X10.2, which works OK most the time as a text editor with syntax highlighting, but I've found tends to fall over when you try to debug; I've just ordered OS X 10.3 which comes with XCode, which looks prettier, and may even work.
For the one or two class examples I post here, I use project builder as a text editor, and compile from the terminal. For larger projects, I use project builder but have to be disciplined about saving regularly.
I've also used J (http://sourceforge.net/projects/armedbear-j/), though mainly under linux on a slow laptop, which is quite fast and lightweight, and being Java portable. I will go try it on the Mac forthwith.

I have created an applet editor that will enable a user to break a text file down into a series of smaller html files. This does serve a purpose that is not really important at the moment and I don't want to bore you all.
The problem I am having is that upon clicking the open button and the 2 save buttons, the applet opens file chooser where you can select a file. The problem is that once the file is open, the applet, for some reason starts the openfile() method again. The same happens when using the the 2 saveFile() methods. Can anyone help?

}Any ideas? I could do with help ASAP if anybody has any ideas... Thanks
MikeThe apps listed at java-tips.org are just some of those that happen to be written in Java. If you want an editor that does syntax highlighting and other programming-specific tasks, you have dozens more options. A few Windows editors that spring to mind are EditPad, Crimson Editor, Scite, UltraEdit and Notetab. Then there are the old Unix standys, Emacs and vi, which have Windows versions as well. I use EditPad Pro, which isn't free like many of the others, but is worth the money anyway, IMO.

Where can I download a Java Text Editor?
I am new to java. And want to have a text editor which can color code the program and keep it in more user friendly format.
Where can I get such text editor from?
ThanksCheck out the category Java Editors at http://www.esus.com:

Any user-friendly java source editor please?
i'm new to java programming...
using notepad to do the source code edit...
i tried forte for java... but seems difficult...
anyone can recommend a user-friendly or industry
standard editor for me?
thanks a lot....You could try Jext (www.jext.org). It provides syntax highlighting for multiple languages (including java) and allows for plugins. I don't use many of the bells and whistles, but you may find some convenient. Not as powerful as forte or similar, but it is free and fairly easy to use.

Basics for a Java based text editor.
I want to try and write a simple java text editor I can upgrade as I learn more about java. Can anyone point me in the right direction or tell me the basic layout of a text editor?
I want to try and write a simple java text editor I
can upgrade as I learn more about java. Can anyone
point me in the right direction or tell me the basic
layout of a text editor?A text editor consists of three parts. User command interaction, text screen presentation and text data handling. Start with a small Java application with a GUI and check out the different Swing components and how they work. Internally the text can be held in a double-linked list where each blocks have space for 1000 characters or so. You'll also need some file handling to store the text externally. -
Is a text editor really better than Dreamweaver?
Hi Everyone,
I've been looking through several different web design forums
and I'm now stuck with a question. Why do some people swear by
using only a text editor to put their website together and totally
discount programs such as Dreamweaver? I find this quite strange
because a website amongst other things is a highly visual
experience usually not showing a single line of code to the end
user. I get the impression that some people feel that Dreamweaver
is beneath them as they are "highly skilled coders" and only
amateurs use WYSIWYGs! Is it just me or am I correct in thinking
there is an element of snobbery here? To me it seems that
Dreamweaver has advantages in abundance and for the so called
hardcore coders there's even a code view which is much more
powerful than a simple text editor. One final thing, I see that
people complain about so called bad code that Dreamweaver writes.
Is it true that Dreamweaver writes bad code and if so what's bad
about it?
Many thanks, I'll be fascinated to read your
responses.Let's see entire sites, good-sized professional ones. :-)

How to install php, perl, python, C text editor
I want to know how to install perl, php, C , Java Text Editors in Mac OSX.
which editor is better .C you installed by installing the XCode package from your installation DVD
Perl is already installed
PHP is already installed
Text Editors are a Religion, as once you have trained your fingers to use a given text editor, you frequently do not want to change, so after that your editor is the only "True" editor :-)
If you are serious about C programming in a Unix environment, then Vim or emacs. If you are going to be doing mostly Mac OS X Objective-C, then use the XCode editor. If this is just a hobby, then a GUI text editor such as one of the previously mentioned editors -
Dear All
I'm Steven Chu,
My MacPro was stolen on Sep, 2011. I try to ask Police and my friend to find out my computer. However, I get nothing up to now.
Now, I would like to have the support from your side. I appreciate you very much for your help if sombody could help me find the IP address.
Please check the following Mac address:
c8:2a:14:41:c6:b4
Maybe this is only way that we can find the IP address.
Highly appreciate for your great help!
With the best regards,
SteveSorry about your loss. This is a user to user forum. We are all users like yourself. This is not Apple. In any case only the police can help you with this. Unless you had a tracking software installed consider your laptop gone.

Cannot find standart java files in DCs. I'm confused. Please help.
Hello SDN!
I need to create extension which allow users attaching files to orders in order.jsp I found standart uploadform.jsp and UploadAction.java. I've create in DC crm/home/shr/ext my own action class based on UploadAction. There're some classes in my class which NWDS cannot resolve. For example, class LocaleUtil. I added import statement by hand but NWDS cannot resolve it anyway. I tried to find LocaleUtil.java via DTR but found nothing. So I don't know in which DC java file is. Now I found only LocaleUtil.class in sap.comcrmisalwcassembly.jar but I don't know how to use this jar. Also this jar contains other unresoldev classes.
Please help me to resolve these classes.
Regards, Lev
Help will be appreciated.Hello Sateesh!
This jar file doen't available in Libraries tab. I found them in DCs\sap.com\crm\isa\lwc\_comp\gen\default\public\assembly\lib\java (note that I haven't project sap.com/crm/isa/lwc) and try to add them in Libraries tab via button "Add external JAR". After that I try to build my DCs and get an error:

After Installing the OS x Mountain Lion some o the softwares are asking for Java SE 6 Runtime. Can someone please help me find a solution.
By default, ML no longer comes with the Java runtime preinstalled. I believe the route to enabling Java if you are going to need it is to run the Java Preferences app found in Utilities. It will inform you of Java's absence and offer to install the latest version and activate it. On subsequent runs, the Preferences app will allow you to fine tune how the runtime operates.
Note that the new default operation is for the applet plugin to be disabled. You need to enable it as needed and it self-deactivates if unused in awhile. Also important to note that Java comes in both 32 and 64 bit versions and you can set the preferred order. Default is 64-bit but I've had issues with some applets failing to run and have had to switch the order. -
Please help! java.text.ParseException:
Hi everybody
why am i gatting java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "Jul 21, 2002"
String s = "yyyy MM dd";
SimpleDateFormat ff = new SimpleDateFormat(s);
java.util.Date mm = ff.parse( DateFormat.getDateInstance().format(new java.util.Date())) ;
System.out.println(mm.toString()); //Exception is thrown
thanks in advenceI didn't take time to look through your code too closely but here is some code that might help. The pullDate method reads a string from a JTextField (textField) and tries to return a Date. If it can't format it then it returns null. It tries to format the text based on the formats listed. If it can't format the text using one then it tries the next until it runs out of them. Change the formats to whatever you like. Good luck.
Jeff
private static DateFormatter[] altFormats = {
new DateFormatter(new SimpleDateFormat("M/d/yy")),
new DateFormatter(new SimpleDateFormat("MMddyy")),
new DateFormatter(new SimpleDateFormat("MMM d, yy")),
new DateFormatter(new SimpleDateFormat("MMM d yy")),
new DateFormatter(new SimpleDateFormat("d MMM yy"))};
private Date pullDate() {
String text = textField.getText();
Date d = null;
int i = 0;
while(d==null && i<altFormats.length) {
try {
d = (Date)(altFormats[i++].stringToValue(text));
} catch (ParseException e) {}
return d;
