Many IDEs make use of rapid application development (RAD) methods. RAD is a broad strategy to use tools such as an interface designer and prototyping to speed up the design process. For most of the Java programming environments that have been released, the RAD tools in evidence are graphical user interface builders. Some of these have a direct connection from the interface design tool to the source code so that you can design a component such as a button and go directly to the event-handling code to make something happen when the button is clicked.
This chapter focuses on both the standard JDK 1.1 development tools and on some of the more popular third-party Java IDEs. The goal is to get you up to speed with the types of tools available so that you can begin assembling your own Java toolkit.
