Java Interactive

I have a programmer working in Java (j2ee and js) and I would like to be able to allow another person to see only what is being coded in real-time but not be able to edit or see any other files within the IDE unless we turn them on for viewing or editing one-by-one as needed.

Assistance is greatly appreciated.
