In fact, many features have been removed! It turns out Netbeans is going through some changes due to Oracle donating it to the Apache open source License.

As such I’ve decided to move back to Eclispe after […]

Using HelloWorld to Test a JDK Installation

February 8, 2015 Andy 0

To test that your Java Development Kit (JDK) is installed correctly, you need to write a simple Java program, compile it, and run the compiled bytecode. A simple Java HelloWorld example looks like this. You compile Java code with the javac command, and then run the resulting file with the java command. You should note that although the resulting Java bytecode is a file called HelloWorld.class, you run the program without any file extension. You could take this a step further and write some code that returns some Java system properties about the current installation. The below code makes use […]
