A java code editor and assistant.
SpotCheck is designed for novice java programmers and will help to produce correct code, without relying on confusing and untimely feedback from a compiler. SpotCheck will identify syntax errors and semantic errors (undefined names, type mismatches, etc.). This analysis is performed after each edit, giving the programmer immediate feedback on errors. SpotCheck also has features that help the user learn Java, or use unfamiliar parts of the language. Popup menus show exactly what is syntactically possible at each juncture, allowing the user to choose from various options. Or, if the user wishes to type in the Java code textually, SpotCheck’s incremental parser provides quick feedback about syntax errors.
