Re: using an IDE other than NetBeans for Java
I know this probably isn't the answer you are looking for, but... You can use any editor, and compile with a very simple one-line batch file.
If you want the color coding, syntax checking, etc. that comes with a typical IDE; then follow the other folks' advice.
If you just want to modify or write a few lines of code and compile it along with other pre-existing code; just use any non-WYSIWYG editor, and the command line syntax that is explained in the Windows or Linux sections of this tutorial. http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutor...ava/index.html
IDEs are fine things to use (I use NetBeans); but they are certainly not required.

PS: If there is some complicated magic that a NetBeans plug-in uses to xfer results into the cRIO, then my suggestion falls flat. If that step can also be accomplished with a command line or two in a batch file, then you are off to the races.
