User Reviews

  • Incompatibility issue is present, on windows machines. So it says it compiles but doesn't create a .class file. This was really difficult for me to figure out as a beginner. Had to ask multiple people before someone figured it out for me.
  • Unit test approach to programming is very important nova days. DrJava is the simplest way to do that.
  • I wish these guys would write compilers for C, C++, JS, Python, etc etc. They're the only developers who seem to be able to create an IDE that actually works and isn't a royal pain to install or use.

    The DrJava build script (build.html) now uses Java 8.
  • Won't compile with java 8. It says it compiles, but the console reports an incompatibility with the compiler and no .class file is created. For a new java user that led to a lot of head scratching. Netbeans works with java 8. There's nothing I can find that warns of this incompatibility.
