I am totally new to this,, how can I compile java source code?Is there a windows based compiler or are all compilers in commandline?
One of the best ways to start out on Windows is probably with Jcreator. Thereis a free version available that is just right for a beginner. You can get itat http://www.jcreator.com/You will need to have the java SDK installed before installing Jcreator (or justabout any Java IDE). You can get that athttp://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/download.htmlMake sure you get the full SDK and not just the runtime environment.
