To answer you question, for a real Java IDE, Java programmers generally believe that IntelliJ is the best and that's hard to argue with. I've used Eclipse for a really long time. If you are doing z/OS Java development, it's generally best to develop on your workstation and just deploy compiled jars to z/OS. We use some enhanced Ant SSH/SFTP tasks that we developed to target z/OS from the IDE (for C/C++, assembler, and Java). https://coztoolkit.com/community/antssh.html On Wed, Aug 23, 2023, at 11:35 AM, Seymour J Metz wrote: > The question "What is the best foo?" is guarantied to start a religious war, > whether foo be an editor, an IDE, a language, an OS or a shell.
