Hi Folks,
I am using a FC11 os and want to learn Java.
I am faced with choices that i don't have good answers for and wonder
what wisdom this group may have to offer?
first, IDE's; there are eclipse and IcedTea6 (which doenst have much
doc), are there others i am missing?
anyone got pros/cons for eclipse or icedtea?
also, there is the sun jdk, but this os seems to have openjdk also,
anyone comment on this choice?
openjdk also seems shy of install/config docs, ... ??? may both be
installed& usable at once?
(not at the same time of course).
all comments welcome, tia, jackc...
FWIW I'm using NetBeans 6.7 with OpenJDK on F11/X86_64 for java dev and
quite happy with it. I believe you can have multiple jdks on the same
machine but you need to establish one as 'active' using the cli:
alternatives --config java
API docs are usually packaged separately, which may explain why you
didn't see them...
I used to use eclipse but found I was spending WAY too much time
fiddling with dependences, etc. and had problems with SVN support
HTH,
G
