Re: Where is the Java?!?

If not, I think teams that are interested in Java may have to look elsewhere this year, because you need to *know* that you can program the robot when build season starts.

On a side note (and I'm sure this information is available somewhere), what does the process look like for loading Java code onto the bot? In other words, does it go from a specific IDE designed for this? Or can I just write the code in a text editor?

I guess it's done when it's not making robots turn into vehicles of injury.

That kind of sounds like Duke Nukem Forever. Let's just hope this doesn't suffer the same fate.
