I am not new to programming. But I am new to Java. I am not anticipating a
lot of trouble learning it.
I want to start off by using a good compiler that is in fairly common use.
I dont want to end up having learned a finge, experimental, rarely used, or
beta compiler!
It would be nice if I could just find something that could be considered a
good reliable, "industry standard" compiler.
It doesn't need to be state of the art, but I dont exactly want to be
working with stone knives and tools either.
A few of the programs I will be writing are going to be very CPU intensive,
so I prefer a native compiler (for windows) rather than a byte code
compiler. I figure that a native EXE would run faster than a byte code
running on a VM. But I am willing to settle for a byte code compiler if
there is no consensus on a native compiler.
A free compiler is obviously my first choice. But if I absolutely must
purchase the compiler then I would definately want to get one with a Free 30
day trial first, before I purchase it. And naturally, if there are
compilers that anyone would recommend that have no free trial, but for which
there is a crack, or serial number, then that's just as good as a free trial
in my view.
Thanks a lot for your help in advance!
