I just started learning Java a little over a month (maybe 2) ago.
I considered starting from the command-line, but I really do prefer
IDEs. After a trying out Eclipse and Netbeans, I went with Netbeans as
I liked the GUI Builder.
I'd recommend the following, but YMMV applies:
1) Go here http://java.
"JDK 6 Update 17 with NetBeans 6.7.1." Also download "Java SE 6
Documentation"
I'd make sure that use pick the correct JDK (32 or 64 bit).
2) Start running through the Java Tutorials website:
Really Big Index:
http://java.
Front Page: http://java.
3) I also read some books:
Java For Dummies (mostly worthless)
Java For Dummies All In One Desk Reference (much better)
Core Java Volumes I & II (Excellent)
Java How to Program, 8/e was a textbook and really dense. Not what
I was looking for but might be useful
