Hi Rob,

> Can anyone recommend a good, solid Java IDE that can be used on FreeBSD?

Well, you may want to try IDEA, JBuilder, JEdit or Visual Age. I don't
know about availability, but these all work on Linux, so they *should*
work on FreeBSD as well.

You will notice that the Linux JDK 1.3 still seems to have some problems
with AWT/Swing at times. But nothing serious. I'm not running any Java
IDE as I'm too used to vim to switch to anything else, but I do use
BugSeeker, which is a large Swing application, and one of the best I've
ever seen. A demo can be installed from the port java/bugseeker-demo. As
the maintainer you can contact me if you run into trouble. Please CC
ports@freebsd.org and/or java@freebsd.org too. If you have a real problem,
then send a PR (using 'send-pr').


Regards,


Ernst
