Better Java programming software?

I have j2sdk1.4.2_05 version of java. But in this I have to type the source code using notepad and then compile it using command prompt. Can anyone tell me whether there is a java language software that has inbuilt source code editor and compiler like turbo c/c++?

Better Java programming software?
First, consider upgrading to Java 1.6. 1.4 is getting a bit old now.

No language requires you to type source code in Notepad! You just need a plain text editor or an IDE with a plain text editor. Google for plain text editors and look up plain text editor on Wikipedia. Big examples are Notepad++, VIM, Jedit, SciTE, and so on. Java IDEs include Eclipse and Netbeans. I'm surprised you haven't found this information out. Anyone who spends time surfing information on Java online will learn about Eclipse and so on.

Unless you have an IDE like Eclipse or Netbeans. Hopefully by using the command prompt you understand how java works (like how classpath and so on works).
