Chapter 10 Development 1. Using the javac and java Commands 1.1 Compiling with javac In the exam, you need to understand –classpath and –d option javac [options] [source files] javac -help -classpath option javac -classpath com:. -g Foo.java Bar.java -d option (assume no package statement) javac -d classes source/MyClass.java tell the compiler to put the .class file to classes dir = d (destination) -d option with package statement package com.wickedlysmart; public class MyClass { } javac -d ../classes com/wickedlysmart/MyClass.java If com/wickedlysmart not exist, the -d option will build it. But if classes dir not exist = ERROR 1.2 Launching Applications with java java [options] class [args] java -DmyProp=myValue MyClass x 1 Create a system property called myProp and set its value to myValue the value pair is retrieved in System.getProperties( ) java -DcmdProp=cmdVal take 2 TestProps // if the value contain space Command Line Arguments Legal Declaration: static public void main(String[] args) public static void main(String... x) static public void main(String bang_a_gong[]) args[0], args[1], … if access args[1] without the actual arg = ArrayIndexOutofBound 1.3 Searching for Other Classes Both java and javac use the same search algorithm the first place they look at the directory come standard with J2SE the second place is the directory defined by classpath classpath can be defined in OS env var or in command line in java and javac command line override the env var e.g. –classpath /com/foo/acct:/com/foo the search path is separated by “:”, “/” means root directory noted that subdirectory, e.g. /com will NOT be searched in windows, use “;” and “\” can use -cp e.g. -classpath /com/foo/acct:/com/foo:. “.” = search also the current directory Packages and Searching package com.foo; public class MyClass{ public void hi( ){ } } import com.foo.MyClass; import com.foo.*; public class Another{ void go( ) { MyClass m1 = new MyClass( ); // alias name com
