Java Compiler for MAC OS X & Linux

Greetings:
I could use a recommendation for a JAVA compiler.
Any help is appreciated.
Q1: For Mac OS X, what is a recommended Java compiler / JDK ?
Q2: Can I program and compile a Java program with the Xcode platform? If so, how?
(fyi: did notice there isn't a JAVA library like C++...but there probably is one out there)
Q3: For Linux OS, what is a recommended Java compiler? (probably the same as Mac)
If you have a website for downloading a compiler and / or Java Library for X code, toss it my way.
Thank you for your time.
Cheers,

The javac compiler is installed in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Commands/. On my machine it's also installed in /usr/bin/javac.
The java libraries in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries/ then there are others in /usr/lib/java/.
I believe that you can use Xcode as an IDE for java or download Eclipse. Then again the Terminal.app (your shell), vi or emacs, and the javac command will get you going.

Is there a compiler that compiles Java code for Mac?
Thanx.

I have no idea whether Apple's emulation layer is a proprietary secret or what, how completely it provides the environment or anything.
There's always VMWare or similar, but you'll either have to run the server edition of OS X, or get your hands dirty with VMware tweaking, since the desktop ones don't run under virtualisation without a lot of hacking. It's doable, but probably illegal. I'll save anybody a bit of pain before they try it - none of this works unless your host machine is running a 64 bit OS. Apparently. I don't know because obviously I have never done this illegal thing. Because it's illegal.

Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?

Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created? I have created an executable application that I want to distribute to Mac and Linux users (different applications were created in the respective OS). I was wondering if there is any way to create an installer? I think there probably isn't... If the user were to simply download the Labview Run-time Engine from ni.com would they be able to run the application or is it more complicated than that?
Thanks so much for your time.

I think Shane tried to say, that it is on the Mac OS X installation DVD, NOT the LabVIEW for Mac OS X installation medium. And that could very well have changed in recent Mac OS X versions as well. They used to have Xcode on it too, but that seems gone as well.

Yes. Always keep the default settings unless you have a specific reason not to.
If you are a heavy user of Java programs or applets, you may need to clear the cache files after Java updates because the old caches may interfere.

Java FX for Mac computers G5

I have a G5 Mac with Mac OS X 10.5.7 version, Power PC processor and I need to use the Java FX for my website - unfortunately my platform does not support your version which is only for Mac with intell processors.
Any suggestions as to what other program comparable to the one for the newer Mac, you might have for my last Mac based on PPC processor?
Can anyone help?
P.S. I don't have the funds to purchase a new Mac which would be the obvious easiest answer.
Thanks,
Asenka

Use the command line tools, get used to the concepts of classpaths, and how to structure your projects in the file system first. Then when you have mastered the basics of Java you can move onto the complications of integrated development environments. You can get nice syntax colouring from simple text editors such as TextWrangler, and TextMate.

Is there Java 6 for Mac as well?

I am not so sure if i m asking this in the right place.
is there a section dedicated for java 6?
but i really like to know, if there's Java 6 beta for Mac as well.
thanks.

AFAIK Apple usually takes the JDK/JRE from Sun and modifies it to run on Mac OS X afterwards (and usually they add some optimization as well). That's the reason why JDKs for Mac usually are a bit behind and probably the reason why there's no beta of Java 6 yet.

Simple java compiler for win

I used the javac command in dos mode to compile my .java files , but in my recent program i have so many errors that they dont fit into the dos screen(in dos mode i cannot move up and down!).
Is there any simple compiler for windows(or GUI) that could solve my problem?

If you haven't done this already you can right click on your Dos Prompt icon and go to properties, then go to Screen, then change the initial size of your prompt to the largest it will go, (50 lines I think). That might give you a little more room...

HT1338 I need java update or java software for mac

I need java update or java for mac. I keep updating software but java is not there, can you please help?

Open up Java preferences located in your Application>Utilities folder. Make sure it's enabled. Mac automatically disables it if not used within a certain amount of time.

Java SDK for Mac OS?

I'm new to java and even newer to Mac OS. Just got a mac laptop and was wondering if Sun had an SDK for Mac OS. Didn't see it on the download list. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Java runtime 1.3.1 comes bundled with the OS. JDK up to 1.4.1 and development tools are free downloads/updates from Apple (and I think the recent software update brings 1.4.1 to the masses). Go to apple.com and choose the "Developer" tab for juicy details. You'll need to register with the Apple Developer's Connection (free) to download the Developer Tools, which include SDK, and IDE, source examples, and other fun.

Apple releases Java update for Mac OS X Tiger

Apple released J2SE 5.0 Release 4 on Tuesday, an update for Mac OS X 10.4.5 Tiger users. According to notes provided with the update the release delivers improved reliability and compatibility for the Java 2 Platform Standard Edition 5.0. With today's release J2SE 5.0 becomes the preferred Java version, superseding Java 1.4.2. Apple notes that Java 1.4.2 is still installed on the machine, but applications will run with J2SE 5.0 unless they specifically request Java 1.4.2. The update is available as a download from Apple's Web site
or via the Software Update mechanism in Mac OS X.

Developp with LabVIEW for PC but need to compile for MAC

Hello,
My customer has a LabVIEW Professionnal development suite for Windows. All the applications should be running under Windows but one (a file viewer) needs to run under both Mac OS and Windows. How can I acheive this? Do my customer needs to buy another licence? Would an application compiled under windows runs on a Mac if the LabVIEW run-tine engine for Mac is deployed?
By the way, the application doesn't use any OS related VIs...
Regards,
Patrick

Patrick
You will need to compile the application on a Mac (there is no cross platform compiler). Then you should be able to deploy tothe customers Mac with a run-time engine.
