Using Java with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012
(9 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
Did anybody have the idea to create a Visual Studio extension for Java ?
Somebody wrote an article here:
http://www.improve.dk/blog/2007/09/29/compiling-java-in-visual-studio
But nobody seems to have the idea of using the free visual studio isolated shell to create an IDE for Java?
Good question. There are some plugins for VS that allow production of other code, such as SapphireSteel Software's Amethyst (allowing Flex development with VS) so it's only natural to ask if there was a plugin for a language as popular as Java.
After searching around the web for a bit (damn NerdSniping :P) I found something very interesting: Grasshopper, a MSIL to Java Bytecode crosscompiler that allows running VB and C# 3.0 webapplications on Java Application Servers and also extends VS to work with Java Bytecode (debugging capabilities, IntelliSense for Java classes, etc).
Perhaps someone else has some firsthand experience with this product or could give some more information regarding the actual capabilities of the crosscompiler.
You can also use J# to write your java code in VS. Dont see the real point of having a java plugin?
People would probably rather spend time improving Eclipse or Netbeans.
Microsoft don't like Java. Those who do, write IDE's in Java.
Yes, there is a plugin that supports the JAVA language in Visual Studio:

... except nobody can't really answer because there is none indeed !
Anybody realize there is a HUGE Business Opportunity to do so ? Thoough Mainsoft has done a great job at recompiling .net for j2ee, they would have made more $$$ by just creating an ide fully for java.

I am totally new to VS Code and as I want to start learning Java for Android development. I saw that the Java language was supported by the VS Code IDE so that was good news. Ok but how would one exactly approach developing anything in Java via VS Code? I mean what is the build process for compiling anything I write in Java? Would I need to write some special tasks.json or?
What I would like to start with is a simple "console" like Java application build with VS Code. I would appreciate any information regarding this topic, thank you.
You will need to install the java language support by pressing F1 and entering ext install java.
You will need to install maeven or gradle (or ant?) for your build process.
Visual Stdio (haha) seems like an awesome and free dev tool to use since it is pretty versatile. I am currently learning java, and intend to learn C++ and Unity5, both of which can be developed for in VS. My question is, how do I set up VS for Java? Is it as simple as installing a plugin, or is there something else I've got to do?
Thanks for any help.
You can't use Visual Studio for Java unless you install a plug in like https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/bc561769-36ff-4a40-9504-e266e8706f93
However the plugin might not be as consistent as a complete Java IDE
I have been developing Java code for doing data analysis in astronomy and physical sciences for several years using xemacs and JDE, which I have grown accustomed to and like. However, I would like to use all the wonderful features included in Xcode to make my coding easier and better.
I know that Apple encourages developing in objective C, but I don't have the time or motivation to start with this at this time. I know Java pretty well, and therefore, I want to stick with it, as least for now.
After several hours of searching the web, I haven't been able to find any decent instructions on how to setup and use Xcode under Mountain Lion or Mavericks to develop Java code. And I don't really care about all the features that are related to developing application for OS X or iOS, I am coding libraries of classes to do statistical data analysis. I just want a nice IDE to do it in, and I don't really like the look and feel of Eclipse, which is the standard for Java.
So, in the end, my question is very simple, but I cannot find the answer by googling: how does one develop in Java using Xcode5?
XCode did previously support java development but that was removed when Apple decided to stop supporting Java on OS X.
Either you need an old version of XCode, or you should go - which I would recommend you to do - with a Java IDE like Netbeans! eclipse and/or IntelliJ. After installing oracle java 7, all of them run well.
I'm a java developer and I love this techonology. However, in my advisor next research we are going to use extensively touch-screen devices on Windows. This is a problem for me, because I'm used to programming on Linux and with Java.
The question is, is there an API for Java for touchscreen devices? If yes, is this API good/mature? The need for a Java API is not only because I love Java but because I don't know how to program specifically to Windows, that is, I've never used Win32 or .NET. If there isn't is there something available for Mono? I hate to exclude platforms.

How to develop multi-touch applications in Java?
This is an old question but i find it may still be useful.
Java Swing does not have native support for touch-events. However, Java FX does. Java FX is already integrated in Java SE 7 and 8 and could be installed on Java SE 6.

Eclipse has a massive plugin library and an enormous community behind it. I've found it to occasionally "pinwheel" when doing large refactors, but other than that it's stable for me. The JSP editor, has, in the past been somewhat weak for me with regards to properly differentiating between HTML and embedded Java. I appreciate the extreme configurability of the layout of the different perspectives. I've never been particularly thrilled with it's editor theming with regards to color schemes. It's debugger is top-notch.
NetBeans is sort-of the reference platform, you know? That said, it's plugin library is not as large, though it does have a rather nice vi emulation plugin. It's always felt slower to me than Eclipse, no matter what I do to it. It has been known to out-right dump on me as well. Netbeans has nice integration for different application-deployment platforms, such as Glassfish and Tomcat.
