Since I have a fundamental knowledge of Java but I need a way to look up functions, I'd like a good combination of tools that would let me do this. I think I'll install ant at home as well as the new native jdk, but I'd like to know what other resources are most valuable for a new Java developer. jm -- My other computer is your windows box.
