Best java compiler software recommendations
Hi all
I am creating a game in a program called JCreator but the functionality of it is quite shall we sahll limited but it is free so I cannot complain.
I have a program on machine that was referred to me called eclipse and it seems to be fairly good. Can anyone tell me the pros and cons of various compilers. Also a break down of the types of benefits I sahll receive by using Eclipse, I know it has a debugger and it has bookmarks to reduce redundant code.
Thanks all

Com on CEHJ what do you use then and why? ;)
TextPad +macros + templates + jikes a lot of the time, but do admit to occasionally dipping into JEdit for pretty formatting and auto Javadoc inserting and this has the added benefit that i can break off for tea while i'm waiting for it to open a file ;-)

CEHJ please have a look at my other Java game question :) thank yee very muchly!
indeed, a compiler is something else: ECLIPSE uses its own, but if you must,
get JDK from the source: SUN.
;JOOP!
