To run the javac
compiler with the -Xlint
option, you will need to have the Java Development Kit (JDK) installed on your computer. The javac
compiler is included in the JDK and is used to compile Java source code into Java bytecode.
To run javac
with the -Xlint
option, you can use the following command:
javac -Xlint:<warning> [source files]
Replace <warning>
with the type of warning that you want to enable. For example, you can use all
to enable all warnings, or you can specify a specific warning such as unchecked
to enable only that warning.
For example, to compile a Java source file MyProgram.java
with all warnings enabled, you can use the following command:
javac -Xlint:all MyProgram.java
This will compile MyProgram.java
and any warnings will be displayed in the Command Prompt.
