Generics capable IDEs

843793Aug 18 2003 — edited Nov 8 2003
Aside from CodeGuide, which requires being paid for, are there any other good IDEs that will allow you to try out Generics?

Unfortunately, neither JBuilder Personal nor Eclipse (the two best free Java IDEs I know of) will allow you to swap out the compiler. But I'm just itchin' to start testing that early access javac!

So, can anyone recommend anything? I'd happily pay for JBuilder pro or CodeGuide, but I'm a student and can barely afford food! :) And I'm too much of a wimp to resort to a text editor and the command line, at least until I can find a good tool for generating Ant scripts.
