When programming in Java, I routinely run code that has compile errors in it.

As long as my execution path doesn't hit any code containing errors, I can run debug and even modify code in the debugger.

That's exploratory programming.

That's not a general java attribute though, is it? I suspect that's because of the eclipse compiler.

Yeah you're right it's eclipse.

I haven't been able to get IntilliJ to run broken code, which is one of the main reasons I stay with eclipse at least part of the time.
