You can compile your program inside the IDE
using the internal
compiler.
The advantages of running javac
internally are speed,
changes in the class structure that appear immediately in the Explorer
window, and a status bar that provides information on the dependent classes
that are compiled.
You can configure the internal compiler under the Compiler Types node in the Project Settings window. When you change the value of a property, your change affects all classes that use that compiler. Following are descriptions of the compiler properties.
Properties Tab | |
---|---|
Debug | If True, creates debugging information when you compile. This option enables you to see local variables during debugging. |
Deprecation | If True, displays each use of a deprecated member or class. |
Encoding | Sets the encoding that determines how the compiler interprets characters beyond the ASCII character set. |
Identifying Name | Sets the name that the IDE uses to identify this compiler type. |
Optimize | If True, optimizes the generated bytecode so that it is more compact and runs faster. |
Target | Sets the filesystem where you want to direct the compiler output.
If you choose <not set>,
the .class files are written to their source directory.
|
Expert Tab | |
---|---|
Boot Class Path | Sets the path from which to load your java source files. |
Class Path | Sets the class path to be used by the IDE. This value overrides the class path set in the CLASSPATH environment variable. |
