BRAND new to Java (editor question)
BACKGROUND:
I'm a 28 year old, with a family and a job already, back in college.....i just finished a Visual Basic course, but that is the full extent of my knowledge in programming. I have a Java class starting next week, based off the deitel books "simply java" and Java HtP.
QUESTION:
from what i have read so far, the editor people use is a personal preference, i see eclipse and netbeans appear to be the most prominent ones. my instructor put in a quick blurb about him liking crimsoneditor (which is no where in your poll) just wondering if anyone has used it, and has thoughts on it? I'm a complete beginner, and im just looking for the editor that will help me do/learn things the quickest, as this is a whole course crammed into 8 weeks. Thanks in advance guys!

Hello, and again welcome to Java and our forums!
QUESTION:
from what i have read so far, the editor people use is a personal preference, i see eclipse and netbeans appear to be the most prominent ones. my instructor put in a quick blurb about him liking crimsoneditor (which is no where in your poll) just wondering if anyone has used it, and has thoughts on it? I'm a complete beginner, and im just looking for the editor that will help me do/learn things the quickest, as this is a whole course crammed into 8 weeks.
My advice: for now, stick with the simpler editor such as Crimson Editor or NotePad++ and concentrate on learning Java and not both Java and a humongous IDE as well. Once you're familiar with Java, then give one or two IDE's a whirl.
Luck!
