You can write the program in any text editor. To compile it, you'll need a Java compiler. I haven't done serious Java development in years. When I did, I just downloaded the Java SDK from Sun, but nowadays the GNU compilers can also compile Java. You can also install an IDE like Eclipse or NetBeans, If you need more information than this, you need to ask a more specific question. Good luck!

You should download and install the JDK from sun. Then write your files in your favorite text editor and compile using the "javac" command. Commands also exist for wrapping into jar files.
Then execute using the "java" command.

You may need to set up your classpath too - either though your .bashrc or directly to the java/c programs as an argument (javac -classpath . myfile.java) etc.
