[jdt-dev] How Do I Compile Java
|
I'm new
to Eclipse and I'm nervous that I am asking a question with an obvious answer,
but I have not been able to find the answer in Eclipse docs, on the Web, nor
anywhere else.
How do
I compile my Java source in Eclipse? I have checked, unchecked, and
re-checked the option to have Eclipse to incremental builds automatically.
I have (when the auto-compile is turned off) used the Ctrl-B (Build) command, I
have used the "Rebuild All" command. When auto-compile is turned on, I try
changing the source and saving it (which the docs say will invoke the automatic
compile). And I get nothing. (Well, almost
nothing. The only response I get is that a dialog box opens
momentarily. But it is gone so quickly that I never get a glimpse of what
it says.)
I don't
get any indication of compilation success, errors nor warnings. I've even
put in garbage in my code to intentionally cause errors -- but I don't get
notified of any errors. If I try to run my code, I get a console window
that baulks at my garbage, but I can't find a way to
compile.
I
understand that Eclipse has it's own built-in Java compiler, and that I cannot
configure it to use "javac". So apparently there's nothing for me to
configure to make it work. But I'm stumped.
What am
I doing wrong?
If the
answer is obvious, and I'm just blind to it, I apologize for taking your
time. I any case, I thank you for any help you can
give.
