Q: How to use Xcode to code Java? (newbie/beginner question)

Title pretty much says it all. At the moment I use aquamacs (by typing in aquamacs <filename>.java), but I have Xcode installed and have no idea how to use it to code java like I do in aquamacs. I found this article but it appears out of date as I can't even get past the first step ((external build system??) https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5161 I was told by my professor to use Xcode as it works better than aquamacs, but I'm at a loss as to how I...

1) open a file from terminal, I tried some random things like xcode <filename>.java and none worked...

2) how to compile code from xcode, it would be just like normal, correct?

 

Or should I just stick with aquamacs?
