no most are friendlyi don't know what is the best, but i don't really program in java at all. when i did i used textpad [not an ide; a text editor].most people use eclipse, i think, which is what i probably would use if i needed an ide.

> what can you advice for beginners?IMHO, use a text editor and command line compiler when starting -- once you understand the basics, it doesn't really matter what IDE you use; they're pretty similar in use and features nowadays.

of the ones you mentioned, JBuilder.

Overall, IntelliJ.

But as said, don't bother with an IDE until you know Java and know it reasonably well.

Otherwise you end up learning the tool instead of the language and become a liability anywhere that specific tool isn't used.

We don't want people who panic when they have to compile something and the compile button is not where they expect it to be (or there's no IDE at all).

textpad is great for beginners, because it has syntax highlighting, intergration with the compiling/running of java and because it's cool.
