Lect4 Java

This document provides an introduction to Java programming, including the different types of Java programs, features of the Java language, and the Java environment. It discusses application programs, servlets, and applets as the main types of Java programs. It then outlines key properties of Java like being compiled and interpreted, platform independent, object-oriented, secure, distributed, multithreaded, high performance, dynamic, and extensible. Finally, it describes the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and Java Development Kit (JDK) that make up the Java environment.

Lecture – 4

• Types of Java Programs


• Features of Java language
• Java environment (JVM and JDK)
Types of Java programs
• APPLICATION PROGRAM
- Run on standalone computers

• SERVLETS
- Run on server

• APPLETS
- - Can be included with other applications or web page. It will be run
by java-enables web browsers.
Properties / Features / Characteristics of java

• Compiled and Interpreted


• Platform Independent
• Object- oriented
• Secure
• Distributed
• Multithreaded and Interactive
• High performance
• Dynamic and Extensible
Java Environment
• To run Java Programs on any platform, you
just need to install SDK in that machine. SDK
includes:
• Java Compiler
• Converts program code to ByteCode [machine-language].

• JVM ( Java Virtual Machine) includes


• Java Interpreter.
• Java Debugger
• Java ByteCode Verifier.
• Java Class Loader
• AppletViewer (optional) for Applets
JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE
• Java Compiler is different than compilers of other PLs as
Java compiler convert the source code into
Intermediate code is called as bytecode.

• This system mechanism of java is called the Java Virtual


machine(JVM) and it exits only inside the computer
memory.
• *Following figure shows the process of compilation.
JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE [cont..]
• Java Object Framework act as the intermediary
between the user programs and the virtual machine.
• JVM act as the intermediary between the operating
system and the Java Object Framework.
JDK and API

• Java environment includes a number of development tools,


classes and methods.

• The development tools are part of the system known as Java


Development Kit (JDK).

• The classes and methods are part of the Java Standard


Library (JSL).

• Java Standard library is also known as the Application


Programming Interface (API).
JDK [ cont…]

• Java Development kit (JDK) – The JDK comes with a set


of tools that are used for developing and running Java
program. It includes:
• appletviewer ( It is used for viewing the applet )
• javac ( It is a Java Compiler )
• java ( It is a java interpreter )
• javap (Java disassembler, which convert byte
code into program description)
• javah (It is for java C header files)
• javadoc (It is for creating HTML document)
• jdb (It is Java debugger)
• JAR (Java Archives)
