which java?

[mezzanine1974]

i am familiar with programming Delphi. It supplies good interface and
RAD (rapid application development) facilities including objects on
the forms.
Is there any such product which completely supplies all aspects of
Java with a practical way like Delphi.
There are crazy amount of documentation in the web, but i would like
to have something similar to Delphi.
Thanks for your support.

Delphi is an adaptation of pascal made specially to fit the IDE. If you
want something similar, you can try Microsoft's J#, which is Java adapted
to .NET and the MS Visual IDE.

That being said, there are several IDEs for Java, the most (in)famous
probably being JBuilder - which for you will have the advantage that it's
a lot like Delphi's. Other alternatives (that I haven't tried) are
JCreator and NetBeans.

I would suggest you try just a basic editor though. Your code will be
much cleaner, and your understanding deeper.

The obvious answer is JBuilder but I haven't looked at that recently.

I suspect Netbeans is close since it has the Matisse GUI designer/editor.

Many years ago, I programmed in Delphi. It was a very very productive tool.

For Java I use Eclipse and design my interfaces using pencil and paper
and then construct them in code using layout managers. It seemed more
work to start with but once I'd built up some experience I no longer
really missed the Delphi way of doing things, that much ...

Althought I have never programmed in Delphi, I used Visual Studio .net
a couple of years ago and, when it comes to UI design, there's no BIG
difference between it and NetBeans.

I've also heard that JBuilder is a good choice about it, but haven't
tested it yet.

Hope this helps.
