Compiling and Running Sample Java Program

1. We'll create a new directory to hold a script file to compile and run the program.
   Select File - New - Folder from the File Explorer menu.
   
   
2. Let's name the new folder prog.
   
   
3. Enter the following code using a text editor and save the file as runTestdb.bat.
   runTestdb.bat
   

   @ECHO OFF
   
   REM  Local environmental variables
   SETLOCAL
   SET COMPILE_CP=.;..\lib\hsqldb.jar
   SET EXECUTE_CP=.;..\lib\hsqldb.jar;test;../src
   
   REM  directory where compiled class file will be created
   IF EXIST .\test (GOTO TEST_EXISTS)
   MD test
   :TEST_EXISTS
   
   ECHO --------- compile ---------
   javac -classpath %COMPILE_CP% -d test ..\src\org\hsqldb\sample\Testdb.java
   
   REM  if compile error abort
   IF ERRORLEVEL 1 (GOTO END)
   
   
   ECHO ------------ execute ------------
   ECHO -- data source access sample
   REM get employee name
   java -classpath %EXECUTE_CP% org.hsqldb.sample.Testdb
   
   REM  -- end
   :END
   
   REM wait for key press
   PAUSE
   
   REM -- end local mode
   ENDLOCAL
   

   
   
4. From the File Explorer, select the created script file.
   
   
5. The sample program will be compiled and executed.Press any key to close the windows.
   A new database file will be created in the "prog" folder.
