Thread: How to make NP++ Compile and Run Java programs

For a while I just used command prompt to compile my code but it's just starting to get annoying having to open it up every time. I tried using NPPexec to do it but I just keep getting this message

Input:
cd desktop
cd code
javac $(FILE_NAME.JAVA)
java $(NAME)
Output:
CD: desktop
Current directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++
CD: code
Current directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++
javac
Process started (PID=10156) >>>
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
where possible options include:
-g Generate all debugging info
-g:none Generate no debugging info
-g:{lines,vars,source} Generate only some debugging info
-nowarn Generate no warnings
-verbose Output messages about what the compiler is doing
-deprecation Output source locations where deprecated APIs are used
-classpath <path> Specify where to find user class files and annotation processors
-cp <path> Specify where to find user class files and annotation processors
-sourcepath <path> Specify where to find input source files
-bootclasspath <path> Override location of bootstrap class files
-extdirs <dirs> Override location of installed extensions
-endorseddirs <dirs> Override location of endorsed standards path
-proc:{none,only} Control whether annotation processing and/or compilation is done.
-processor <class1>[,<class2>,<class3>...] Names of the annotation processors to run; bypasses default discovery process
-processorpath <path> Specify where to find annotation processors
-parameters Generate metadata for reflection on method parameters
-d <directory> Specify where to place generated class files
-s <directory> Specify where to place generated source files
-h <directory> Specify where to place generated native header files
-implicit:{none,class} Specify whether or not to generate class files for implicitly referenced files
-encoding <encoding> Specify character encoding used by source files
-source <release> Provide source compatibility with specified release
-target <release> Generate class files for specific VM version
-profile <profile> Check that API used is available in the specified profile
-version Version information
-help Print a synopsis of standard options
-Akey[=value] Options to pass to annotation processors
-X Print a synopsis of nonstandard options
-J<flag> Pass <flag> directly to the runtime system
-Werror Terminate compilation if warnings occur
@<filename> Read options and filenames from file

Any one have a solution

No. it works when I compile it in six and eight they both work fine.

Java six and Eight

I started out using Six. But then when I swapped to eight and uninstalled six. I have java eight JDK and JRE installed as when I used the installer it installed both of them onto my system.

javac -version
javac 1.8.0_191

java -version
java version "1.8.0_191"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)

And I do not know why java is looking for 1.7

I'm sorry for posting on a closed topic. So I tried the fixes and none of them worked.But I think this is how NPPexec handles as my java works just fine normally.

Oh okay, Ill ask someplace else. Thanks for helping though!
