back in 'the day', there was only one usable java ide, visual j++. it's pretty good as an ide. at the time, the compiler was very non-conforming. i dunno how it is now, last time i used it was 1998.
more recently, i've used sun's forte ide. it is very slow, and somewhat buggy. a fine example of why you should not write gui apps in java. what's even worse, when you ran a test program, it would execute the code as a thread of the ide! this caused several idiotic consequences. among them, if your program had a runaway thread, you'd have to kill the entire ide.
