(1) The program must be compiled into bytecode with the Java compiler, then (2) run using the Java interpreter.
To run the program,
check that the default directory of the DOS command interpreter
contains the source file.
Do this by using the command DIR *.java
to list the files in the subdirectory.
One of the files should be "Hello.java".
To see all the files, just just the command DIR
.
C:\TEMP>DIR *.java Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is 7C68-1E55 Directory of C:\TEMP 08/23/98 01:07a 115 Hello.java 1 File(s) 115 bytes 2,448,368,640 bytes free
If you don't see the source file, use the Change Directory command
CD to get to the correct subdirectory.
To compile the source file (thereby producing a file of bytecodes)
enter the command javac Hello.java
.
Finally, to run it, enter the command java Hello
.
C:\TEMP>javac Hello.java compiling: Hello.java C:\TEMP>java Hello Hello World! C:\TEMP>
