that's what Sun wants you to believe...
Fact is you don't need any IDE at all to write Java programs, and you
don't
need to write them on the platform you deploy them on either.
There are also many other editors and IDEs that will work on Solaris. As
said already, IntelliJ is likely to work and well worth the money.
Eclipse probably won't work (IBM product...), but others may.
Myself, I develop on Windows and Linux using IntelliJ (and occasionally
Eclipse) and VI, deploy on Linux, Windows, and Solaris.
