How can I compile Java Programs on Code::Blocks ?

Question

It says that I need to install some sort of compiler for Java !! I do have the latest JDK installed !

Answer 1

in my memory, you can. but its kinda tacky in a way, because how different the compiler are.

i'm not so sure if its codeblock or devc++ that i manage to slip javac in. but yeah, just dont. its unecesarry struggle.

Answer 2

You can't compile java code on code::blocks as it is ment to be used for C/C++. For java you need seprate IDE like Eclips IDE.

edit:- even though code::blocks support text highlighting feature for java also but to compile it you need another compiler.

Answer 3

That's new. I'm surprised that CodeBlocks would even show the message telling you to install JDK. Save yourself the effort and just install a Java IDE I guess lol.

Answer 4

Fermi , Taste we can use the custom build commands (within the file properties) to call the Java compiler. But that only practical for small number of files.

Answer 5

Well Java is case sensitive. So, you can get the value 'TRUE' even if you print the answers in uppercase. Wrong.
