maybe can be the tool of that kind. So the question is: if I have eclipse,
what kind of java tool I also need which eclipse doesn't support?
Make sure you have lots of processing power and copious amounts of memory, Eclipse is a hungry beastie. Actually for learning, a compiler and text editor force you into learning stuff that the IDE allows you to ignore. Multiple windows can always be used to handle different functions.
Besides if you plan on doing it professionally, there will be that time, at 4:00am at a client when you need to fix something and the Internet is not working, and all you can stuff on the CD is a compiler for a couple of platforms, so your sitting there with only notepad or Vi available. If you don't know what your doing, then your sunk.
Every professional programmer should know the basics of Vi, every Unix/Linux box has a version of Vi on it. For windows, Vi is available (Winvi) and quite small, the executable is 370K, the zip file is 189K.

Or jEdit. Small jar file, couple that with the jdk of choice and off you go - a complete and portable multi-platform development kit for those emergency situations...
