Supported Compilers

Currently IntelliJ IDEA supports the following Java compilers:

• Javac. This compiler is taken from the Java SDK currently assigned to the project.
• Eclipse. IntelliJ IDEA comes bundled with the Eclipse compiler.
• Ajc. This compiler is not included in IntelliJ IDEA distribution and should be downloaded separately. Note that to able to use this compiler, the AspectJ Support plugin should be enabled.

Besides that, IntelliJ IDEA supports compilers for Flex, Groovy, Android DX. The corresponding plugins should be enabled.
