Building and Running a Console Application

Thanks for using this pre-release version of Visual J++.

To compile a basic Java console application

• On the Build menu, click Build <ProjectName> where.ProjectName is the name you gave your project in the New Project dialog box.

  The Output Window appears and displays the results of the projectÆs compilation. Build errors are displayed on the Task List not in the Output Window. To view a list of compilation errors and warnings, see Viewing Compilation Errors and Warnings.

To run the application with an application viewer

1. On the Debug menu, click Start.

   The Settings dialog box appears the first time you run any project. The name of your applicationÆs class file appears in the When project runs, load text box.

Tip   To modify the information in the Settings dialog box after your project runs once, select Settings on the Project menu. Click the Launch tab and enter your changes.

2. Click OK to accept the values in the Settings dialog box.

Your application runs in WJVIEW, Visual J++Æs applet and application viewer. The output from your program is displayed in the Output Window.
