Notepad++ is a great free editor. I like notepad++ because its a light weight editor and loads instantly. I use notepad++ for editing many files everyday. One plugin I always wanted was a plugin which lets me compile my java files and execute them from editor itself, but I couldn't find it so I wrote a myself. This plugin can be downloaded from this link.
I am working on this plugin to make it more effective, so that if user have more than one installations of JDK or JRE then user should be able to choose which one to use etc.
This is a simple plugin which has two commands-
Compile - compiles a java file.
Run - executes a java file.
For using this plugin Java must be installed on the system.
Hey man thanks for this awesome plugin. I was wondering if there was a way to change the hot keys for the plugin though?
ReplyDeleteIn current plugin you cannot, but I am working on the same to provide functionality.
