I do not use Java regularly anymore, but when I did I liked it. But its over-reliance on IDEs has always seemed to me as a drawback. The IDE obscures what is going on, and when something goes wrong, you have no chance to correct it. Things went wrong fairly often. Not to mention that Eclipse is, or at least used to be, a resource hog and sluggish. I had to buy a new computer just so I can do my Java homework back in university lol.
