THE JAVA DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

Step1: Write the Java source code

Step2: Compile the Java source code

Step3: Run the compiled Java code or class file

1
A Simple Java Program

//This program prints Welcome to Java!


public class Welcome {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java!");
}
}

Java Development tools

• You can use a text editor, to create Java Programs and to compile and
run the programs from the command windows.
• You can use a Java development tool
• NetBeans, Eclipse
• Integrated development environment(IDE)

Creating, Compiling, and
Running Programs
Create/Modify Source Code

Source code (developed by the programmer)


Saved on the disk
public class Welcome {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java!"); Source Code
}
}

Compile Source Code


Byte code (generated by the compiler for JVM i.e., javac Welcome.java
to read and interpret, not for you to understand)
…
Method Welcome() If compilation errors
0 aload_0 stored on the disk
…
Bytecode
Method void main(java.lang.String[])
0 getstatic #2 …
3 ldc #3 <String "Welcome to
Java!">
5 invokevirtual #4 …
8 return Run Byteode
i.e., java Welcome

Result

5 If runtime errors or incorrect result


Step 2: To compile your program

Type JDK Command:


javac Welcome.java

where javac is JDK Java compiler.


•Compiler translates the source program into Java bytecode.
•The compiler saves the bytecode into the file Welcome.class. 6
Step 3: To run the byte code with the Java
interpreter
Successful compilation will create the bytecode class file: Welcome.class

Type JDK Command : java Welcome


The class file (bytecode) is loaded into memory and interpreted by the Java Virtual
Machine (JVM)

Trace a Program Execution
Enter main method

//This program prints Welcome to Java!


public class Welcome {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java!");
}
}

8
Trace a Program Execution

Execute statement

//This program prints Welcome to Java!


public class Welcome {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java!");
}
}

print a message
to the console
