Running java project in command prompt
To run a Java project in the command prompt, you need to follow these steps:
Open the command prompt: Open the command prompt on your system. On Windows, you can do this by pressing
Win + R
, typing "cmd" in the Run dialog, and pressing Enter.Navigate to the project directory: Use the
cd
command to navigate to the directory where your Java project is located. For example, if your project is in a folder named "MyProject" on your desktop, you can use the following command:bashcd C:\Users\YourUsername\Desktop\MyProject
Compile the Java source files: Use the
javac
command to compile the Java source files in your project. For example, if you have a file named "Main.java" that contains your main class, you can use the following command:cssjavac Main.java
Run the Java program: Once the Java files are successfully compiled, you can use the
java
command to run your program. Specify the name of the class that contains themain
method. For example, if your main class is named "Main", you can use the following command:cssjava Main
Make sure you have the Java Development Kit (JDK) installed on your system and the javac
and java
commands are accessible from the command prompt. You can verify this by running javac -version
and java -version
commands, respectively, to check the JDK version.
Note: If your project has external dependencies or requires additional command-line arguments, you may need to include them when running the java
command. Refer to the documentation or instructions specific to your Java project for any additional requirements.
By following these steps, you should be able to run your Java project from the command prompt.
