The JVC.EXE (JVC) command line uses the following syntax:
JVC [options] <filename>
The following table describes input to the JVC command.
Entry | Meaning |
option | One or more JVC options. See Setting Project Options and JVC Command-Line Options for more information. Note All options apply to all specified source files. |
filename | The name of one or more source files. For more information about valid filenames, see Filename Syntax below. |
You can specify any number of options and filenames, as long as the number of characters on the command line does not exceed 1024 or the limit dictated by the operating system.
Note There is no guarantee that future releases of Microsoft Windows NT (version 4.0 and later) and Microsoft Windows 95 will have the same input limit of 1024 characters for the command line.
Any options you wish to pass to JVC must be supplied before the name of the .java file(s).
Filename Syntax
JVC recognizes the following filename syntax:
A full path includes a drive name and one or more directory names. JVC accepts filenames separated either by backslashes (\) or forward slashes (/).
A partial path omits the drive name, which JVC assumes to be the current drive. If you don’t specify a path, JVC assumes the file is in the current directory.
Note If a filename does not have an extension, JVC assumes the extension of .java when it reads the file.
