What tools do i need for java programming in fedora 14?

You need an IDE and the JDK and that's it AFAIK.

You don't need an IDE to do Java programming in Fedora or any operating system. I've written tons of Java code using just a text editor (Emacs) and the JDK.

If you want to do server-side web programming with Java, you'll also need a Servlet/JSP container like Tomcat, which is in the Fedora repos. You'll also probably find web frameworks like Hibernate and Spring useful, and some kind of database server, like PostgreSQL.

to create a jar file:

jar -cf helloworld.jar *.class (or run jar to get an overview what you can do with this tool)

net-beans it's great! Eclipse it's also a good tool

IntelliJ Idea community edition is great:
