Compiling Java code
Compiling code on the command-line
As discussed on the first slide, all the code is contained in the workspace
you specified in the home directory. If you followed the example image,
your workspace is a folder called CMSC202
in your home
directory.
Browse to your project folder (LabAssignments
), then the source
code
folder (src
). In your source folder should be a folder called
lab1
.
The example below illustrates how to compile your lab1 code directly from a UNIX terminal.
We use thejavac
command to compile the contents of the
lab1
directory into the current directory.
javac -d . lab1/*.java
To execute your code, use the command
java lab1.HelloWorld
