You might want an IDE, although it is by no means mandatory. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3 עַם יִשְׂרָאֵל חַי נֵ֣צַח יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל לֹ֥א יְשַׁקֵּ֖ר

I have java 8 (both 31 bit and 64 bit) as well as java 11 and 17 on the mainframe - the parts that are "no additional cost" with z/OS 3.1. Is this all I need to develop java applications on the MF or are there additional java compilers or other pieces that I would need to purchase to make this a viable option? At this point the only java we use is what IBM ships ( like SCRT).
