The document discusses the internal details of running a Java program. It explains that at compile time, the Java compiler converts Java code into bytecode. At runtime, the classloader loads the bytecode and the bytecode verifier checks for illegal code before the interpreter executes the instructions. It then addresses some questions about naming Java files and having multiple classes in a file. Finally, it defines the JVM, JRE, and JDK, explaining that the JVM executes bytecode, the JRE provides the runtime environment, and the JDK contains the JRE plus development tools.
2. hello java
- 1. Internal Details of Hello Java Program In the previous page, we have learned about the first program, how to compile and how to run the first java program. Here, we are going to learn, what happens while compiling and running the java program. Moreover, we will see some question based on the first program.
- 2. What happens at compile time? At compile time, java file is compiled by Java Compiler (It does not interact with OS) and converts the java code into bytecode.
- 3. What happens at runtime? At runtime, following steps are performed:
- 4. Classloader: is the subsystem of JVM that is used to load class files. Bytecode Verifier: checks the code fragments for illegal code that can violate access right to objects. Interpreter: read bytecode stream then execute the instructions.
- 5. Q)Can you save a java source file by other name than the class name? Yes, if the class is not public. It is explained in the figure given below: To compile: javac Hard.java To execute: java Simple
- 6. Q)Can you have multiple classes in a java source file? Yes, like the figure given below illustrates:
- 7. Difference between JDK, JRE and JVM Brief summary of JVM Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Java Development Kit (JDK)
- 8. Difference between JDK, JRE and JVM Understanding the difference between JDK, JRE and JVM is important in Java. We are having brief overview of JVM here. If you want to get the detailed knowledge of Java Virtural Machine, move to the next page. Firstly, let's see the basic differences between the JDK, JRE and JVM.
- 9. JVM JVM (Java Virtual Machine) is an abstract machine. It is a specification that provides runtime environment in which java bytecode can be executed. JVMs are available for many hardware and software platforms. JVM, JRE and JDK are platform dependent because configuration of each OS differs. But, Java is platform independent.
- 10. The JVM performs following main tasks: Loads code Verifies code Executes code Provides runtime environment
- 11. JRE JRE is an acronym for Java Runtime Environment.It is used to provide runtime environment.It is the implementation of JVM.It physically exists.It contains set of libraries + other files that JVM uses at runtime. Implementation of JVMs are also actively released by other companies besides Sun Micro Systems.
- 12. JRE
- 13. JDK JDK is an acronym for Java Development Kit.It physically exists.It contains JRE + development tools.
