  BlueJ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BlueJ is an interactive Java development environment, developed mainly for educational purposes, but also suitable for small-scale development.
BlueJ was developed to support the learning and teaching of object-oriented programming, and its design differs from other development environments as a result.
BlueJ is currently being maintained by a joint team at the University of Kent at Canterbury, England, and Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia.

BlueJ's class diagram provides students with the big picture: they quickly see how all (or most, assuming the presence of user libraries) of the pieces of a Java project fit together.

 BluejProblems - BlueJ Wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The workaround enables opening projects from a network (UNC) path but BlueJ must still be run from a non-UNC path (which in many cases is easily accomplised by installing bluej in a location which is mapped to a drive letter).
It's possible to downgrade to BlueJ 2.0.2 to solve this problem, but using java 1.5 is slightly problematic with BlueJ 2.0.2 because BlueJ does not understand the 1.5 compiler error messages properly (and does not therefore give a very useful error message to the end user).
To do this, edit the "bluej" shell script which is used to start BlueJ (it is located just inside the folder/directory into which BlueJ was installed).

 Amazon.com: Objects First with Java: A Practical Introduction Using BlueJ: Books: David J. Barnes,Michael Kolling   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
BlueJ supports teaching tools that are not available in other environments, including the visualisation of class structure.
The book seems to be written for a "new breed" of students in times of Mass-Education, that is: students who want to learn programming vocationally rather than scientifically; students who want to apply programming to "real-world" jobs rather than to study a programming language for the sake of its own beauty.
The text and style of the book itself is, in my opinion, rather tiring and tedious, too packed and cluttered with "projects", too repetitive, too self-interrupting with all sorts of "windows" and "boxes" etc. The same contents could have been presented in a much leaner, much more concise and much less repetitive fashion.
