Compiling and Running Java Code in Sublime Text 2

Question

I am trying to compile and run Java code in Sublime Text 2. Don\'t just tell me to do it manually in the Command Prompt. Can anyone tell me how?

Btw, I am on Windows

Answer 1

This is how I did it with these easy steps:

Setup a new build system:

1. Tools > Build System > New Build System

2. Replace the default code with the following:

   {
      "cmd": ["javac","$file_name","&&","java","$file_base_name"], 
      "path": "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_25\\bin\\", 
      "shell": true
   }
   // locate the path of your jdk installation and replace it with 'path' 
   

3. Save the file by giving it a name (I named mine "Java")

Activate the build system:

1. Tools > Build System > Java (name of the file you saved it with)
2. Now run your program with Ctrl + B
