[edit] NetBeans BlueJ Edition versus BlueJ
| BlueJ | NetBeans BlueJ Edition | |
|---|---|---|
| Object Bench | Integral to BlueJ | None |
| Interactivity with adhoc classes | Inherent in object bench | None |
| Compiling programs | Uses selected version of Javac.exe | Uses selected version of Javac.exe, but with parameter to use Java 1.4 if using a BlueJ project
(this is fixed by editing the project's .properties file) |
| main method or Main class | Has no effect on program (other than creating JAR files) | Required to run a program |
| BlueJ view | Main window. Allows movement of classes, etc. Shows most class relationships. | An optional view, only uses images for a simplified list. No movement, no relationships displayed. |
| Debugging | Has debugging console. Is buggy and cumbersome for large projects. | Has all traditional debugging views. |
