Updates to On-Line Compiler

[Andrew Thompson]

The Java On-Line Compiler has been
updated to allow compilation against
the 1.5 rt.jar.
http://www.physci.org/javac.jsp?bcp=15

Support for the MS JVM is also added
http://www.physci.org/javac.jsp?bcp=ms
It will recognise
http://www.physci.org/javac.jsp?bcp=MicroSoft
as well as..

Completely untested as yet.
(I do not even have any 1.5 source
lying around, only downloaded the
JRE hours ago..)

Comments and feedack welcome.

Scrap the 1.5 for the moment!

I need to install a 1.5 SDK
before I can do that
successfully.

/../CardTest.java:7: cannot access java.awt.Frame
bad class file: /...rt.jar(java/awt/Frame.class)
class file has wrong version 49.0, should be 48.0
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the
classpath.

Actually, he does have a point. Even if you are providing something for
free, it is generally your job to test it.

** New zip download.

Scrap the 1.5 for the moment!

Further errors were discovered when
investigating the 1.5 functionality.
The .jar files were not properly written.

Until I can come up with a fix, I
have implemented a .zip download of
the .class and .java files, as well
as example .bat files for Jarring
and generating the JavaDocs, and a
few random .htm and other
files to wrap around it.

Given that 99% of Java noobs who
need help with the Jar and JavaDoc
commands would be using Windows and
IE, I have designed the web pages
to make full use of IE, possibly to
the detriment of other browsers.

Users of other OS's can probably
get a good idea how to alter the
various scripts for their own OS,
the scripts contain comments.

I have thus far tested it with
SimpleGui1, against the MS 1.1VM.
You can try it out for yourselves,
or quickly check out the resulting
..zip file here-

There are also some further
useability changes made to
the page.
