Study Notes

Java Overview

  • Developed by Sun Microsystems, acquired by Oracle in 2010
  • Used for developing software on various platforms (mobile, desktop, servers)
  • Machine-independent

Java Syntax and Errors

  • Syntax Errors: Errors in the structure (grammar) of the code
  • Semantic Errors: Errors in the meaning of the code

Java API

  • Application Programming Interface (API) is a library of pre-defined Java code
  • Enables reuse of existing code, making development faster

Java Editions

  • Java Standard Edition (SE): For desktop applications
  • Java Enterprise Edition (EE): For server-side applications
  • Java Micro Edition (ME): For mobile devices
  • Java SE forms the base for other editions

JDK (Java Development Kit)

  • A suite of tools for Java development
  • Includes the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) — used to run Java programs
  • Both JRE and JDK contain the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) which executes Java code on various systems, making Java platform-independent

IDE (Integrated Development Environment)

  • A software program for developing Java programs
  • Writing (source code): Creating Java code
  • Compiling (machine code): Translating source code into machine code
  • Debugging (tools): Identifying errors in code
  • Building (executable files): Combining files into runnable form
  • Running (execution): Executing the program
  • Common Java IDEs: NetBeans, Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA
