Built-in compiler support


The IDE comes with support for the Fastjavac and Javac compilers. The IDE uses Fastjavac by default.

Fastjavac is a native compiler, meaning that there are different versions of it for each platform, but each version compiles into the same Java bytecode. Fastjavac is available for the Solaris, Linux, and Windows platforms. See Switching compilers by class for information on setting the compiler for your classes.

Javac is a cross-platform compiler written in Java.
