This simple program declares a single class called HelloWorld, with a single method called main. Open up a text editor (the built-in TextEdit app works fine), type in the following code, and save the file as 'HelloWorld.java' in your home directory.įor example, if your username is David, save it as '/Users/David/HelloWorld.java'. The first step is writing a simple Java program. Apple includes a fully-functional Java runtime and development environment out-of-the-box with OSX, so all you have to do is write a Java program and use the built-in tools to compile and run it. This likely breaks when you upgrade your JDK installation but you have access to all the command line tools now.įollow comments above about how to compile the file ('javac MyFile.java' then 'java MyFile') Ħ,165 28 28 gold badges 66 66 silver badges 94 94 bronze badges 5 AnswersĬompiling and running a Java application on Mac OSX, or any major operating system, is very easy.
Within this folder are symbolic links to a handful of java executables but 'javac' is NOT one of them so when trying to run 'javac' from Windows command line it throws an error. After installing, in edits the Windows PATH environment variable and adds the following to the path C:ProgramDataOracleJavajavapath.Follow comments above about how to compile the file ('javac MyFile.java' then 'java MyFile').
'javac' is not by default in the windows system PATH environment variable. in windows, browse into 'C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_91bin' (or wherever the latest version of JDK is installed), hold down shift and right click on a blank area within the window and do 'open command window here' and this will give you a command line and access to all the BIN tools.
