Java in Code::Blocks?

MrRogers443:
Is there any way I can write Java in Code::Blocks?

If not, can someone tell me where I can download a Java API?

Thx in advance!

Write: Yes. Compile: No.

Java is just WAY too different compared to C/C++/D... which are natively supported. However, syntax highlighting should work properly. If you have only a few Java files you can use the custom build commands (within the file properties) to call the Java compiler. But that's basically it.

Not sure, what you mean - but what about the Java SDK at http://www.sun.com ?!

You're probably off a lot better using Sun Eclipse rather than Code::Blocks, if you want to write Java. It's the tool for it.

It has to be that people doesn't like that IDE performance, since it's slow, codeblocks is really fast :P

Concerning speed: As I am working with Java, too I would suggest to try NetBeans instead of Eclipse if you are starting a project from scratch and don't want to develop RCP-like application. NetBeans is really cool and fast and (finally) free.

However... we are getting OT.
