I'm starting the same way and have the same problem with jbuilder. The
book "Learn Java in 21 Days" isn't too compatible with jbuilder. I've
finally downloaded the free jdk1.2beta4 as they recommend and found a
programmers editor called UltraEdit (file is uedit32.zip) and it makes
it faster. The editor is actually better then the jbuilder editor, and
I can compile and run the examples faster. You don't have to shell to
dos and retype the commands every time, they go on a list box within
the editor. Try it. I won't go back to jbuilder untill after I learn
java and upgrade JB and my hardware.
