I use a texteditor (I just have a look at UltraEdit) for writing the code,
jikes from IBM for compiling it (really fast - check
http://www.alphaWorks.ibm.com/formula/Jikes) and the servletrunner plus a
Browser for local testing. Sometimes I miss a 'real' debugger - until now I
use the log-method. I spend more and more time on thinking and plannig with
pencil and paper - you avoid many problems and errors and it speeds up the
developing-process.
