Deploying a Java Program DEPLOYING A JAVA PROGRAM To deploy a Java program you need to: Type it out and save it into a file Compile it Execute it Type and Save You can use any word processing software to create, edit and save your Java programs. Seasoned programmers, however, prefer to use an integrated development environment ( IDE ), which is a software tool that combines the functionality of word processing, compiling and executing into one package. An IDE also provides other services such as automatic code indention, text coloring and a debugger that allows you to execute a program step-by-step while inspecting its internal state. jGRASP is such an IDE. Since it is implemented in Java, it works on any computer that runs Java. It is easy to use, easy to learn and includes visualization tools that allow you to better understand the structure of your code and its data. For a full introduction to jGRASP, see the website www.jgrasp.org . Deploying a Java Program Page 1 The image below shows the jGRASP window with the simple HelloWorld application typed onto the workspace. Notice the Browse window (marked by the red rounded rectangle) indicates the folder F:\Java Examples is empty. Deploying a Java Program Page 2 You must save your application to a file having the same name as the application followed by .java as its extension. Thus, the HelloWorld application must be saved as HelloWorld.java . The image below shows the jGRASP window after saving the application. Notice HelloWorld.java is listed in the Browse window. Deploying a Java Program Page 3 Compile A compiler is a software tool that translates a program into machine code (or machine language ) which can be thought of as the “native” language of the computer. The Java compiler (which we call javac , for short) translates Java into a machine language named bytecode . Each Java class is compiled into a separate file whose name is the same as the class being compiled followed by .class as its extension. Java compiler Java code (javac) Bytecode HelloWorld.java HelloWorld.class The image below shows the jGRASP window after compiling the HelloWorld application. Notice the Browse window lists both HelloWorld.java and HelloWorld.class . Deploying a Java Program Page 4 Execute Once a computer program has been compiled into machine code, the computer is able to execute it. Each computer is built to execute its own special machine code. A physical computer is built of hardware circuitry that directly processes its machine code. A virtual computer is built of software. Its main component is the interpreter , which is a software tool that simulates the operation of a computer when it processes its machine code. The physical computer on which the virtual computer executes is called the host machine . The machine code for a virtual computer is called an interpreted language . Bytecode is an interpreted language that is processed by a virtual computer called the Java Virtual Machine ( JVM ). Example Consider a Smartphone running a Java app. The Smartphone is the host machine since its circuitry is executing the JVM. The JVM is processing the bytecode, producing the behavior of Java program from which it was derived. Here’s a diagram of the process: Java Virtual Byte code Machine (JVM) class file JVM is loaded Host computer Time JVM executes into memory produces Java on the host by operating program computer system output Deploying a Java Program Page 5 Interpreters are used to increase the portability of a computer language. Ideally, once you write a Java program and compile it, the class file can be executed on any host machine that can run the JVM. JVM executing under Windows Byte code in JVM executing Java Program Java compiler class file under UNIX JVM executing under MacOS Exercises 1. Enter, compile and run the HelloWorld application using jGRASP. 2. Using jGRASP, edit the HelloWorld application above so that it prints a different message. Save it using a different class and file name, compile and run it. What file names should you use to save the following Java applications? 3. public class MyApp { public static void main( String [] args ) { . } } 4. public class DateAndTime { public static void main( String [] args ) { . } } Deploying a Java Program Page 6 What file names should you use to save the following Java applications? 5. public class HelloJoe { public static void main( String [] args ) { . } } 6. Enter, compile and run this Java application using jGRASP. import static javax.swing.JOptionPane.*; import static java.util.Calendar.*; public class MyApplication { public static void main( String [] args ) { String date = getInstance( ).getTime( ).toString( ); showMessageDialog( null, date ); } } Deploying a Java Program Page 7 .

NOTE Defining Computer Program Parts Under Learned Hand's Abstractions Test in Software Copyright Infringement Cases John W.L. Ogilvie INTRODUCTION Although computer programs enjoy copyright protection as pro­ tectable "literary works" under the federal copyright statute, 1 the case law governing software infringement is confused, inconsistent, and even unintelligible to those who must interpret it.2 A computer pro­ gram is often viewed as a collection of different parts, just as a book or play is seen as an amalgamation of plot, characters, and other familiar parts. However, different courts recognize vastly different computer program parts for copyright infringement purposes. 3 Much of the dis­ array in software copyright law stems from mutually incompatible and conclusory program part definitions that bear no relation to how a computer program is actually designed and created.

  • Language Translators
    Student Notes Theory LANGUAGE TRANSLATORS A. HIGH AND LOW LEVEL LANGUAGES Programming languages Low – Level Languages High-Level Languages Example: Assembly Language Example: Pascal, Basic, Java Characteristics of LOW Level Languages: They are machine oriented : an assembly language program written for one machine will not work on any other type of machine unless they happen to use the same processor chip. Each assembly language statement generally translates into one machine code instruction, therefore the program becomes long and time-consuming to create. Example: 10100101 01110001 LDA &71 01101001 00000001 ADD #&01 10000101 01110001 STA &71 Characteristics of HIGH Level Languages: They are not machine oriented: in theory they are portable , meaning that a program written for one machine will run on any other machine for which the appropriate compiler or interpreter is available. They are problem oriented: most high level languages have structures and facilities appropriate to a particular use or type of problem. For example, FORTRAN was developed for use in solving mathematical problems. Some languages, such as PASCAL were developed as general-purpose languages. Statements in high-level languages usually resemble English sentences or mathematical expressions and these languages tend to be easier to learn and understand than assembly language. Each statement in a high level language will be translated into several machine code instructions. Example: number:= number + 1; 10100101 01110001 01101001 00000001 10000101 01110001 B.

  • SUBJECT-COMPUTER CLASS-12 CHAPTER 9 – Compiling and Running Java Programs
    SUBJECT-COMPUTER CLASS-12 CHAPTER 9 – Compiling and Running Java Programs Introduction to Java programming JAVA was developed by Sun Microsystems Inc in 1991, later acquired by Oracle Corporation. It was developed by James Gosling and Patrick Naughton. It is a simple programming language. Writing, compiling and debugging a program is easy in java. It helps to create modular programs and reusable code. Bytecode javac compiler of JDK compiles the java source code into bytecode so that it can be executed by JVM. The bytecode is saved in a .class file by compiler. Java Virtual Machine (JVM) This is generally referred as JVM. Before, we discuss about JVM lets see the phases of program execution. Phases are as follows: we write the program, then we compile the program and at last we run the program. 1) Writing of the program is of course done by java programmer. 2) Compilation of program is done by javac compiler, javac is the primary java compiler included in java development kit (JDK). It takes java program as input and generates java bytecode as output. 3) In third phase, JVM executes the bytecode generated by compiler. This is called program run phase. So, now that we understood that the primary function of JVM is to execute the bytecode produced by compiler. Characteristics of Java Simple Java is very easy to learn, and its syntax is simple, clean and easy to understand. Multi-threaded Multithreading capabilities come built right into the Java language. This means it is possible to build highly interactive and responsive apps with a number of concurrent threads of activity.

  • Coqjvm: an Executable Specification of the Java Virtual Machine Using
    CoqJVM: An Executable Specification of the Java Virtual Machine using Dependent Types Robert Atkey LFCS, School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh Mayfield Rd, Edinburgh EH9 3JZ, UK [email protected] Abstract. We describe an executable specification of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) within the Coq proof assistant. The principal features of the development are that it is executable, meaning that it can be tested against a real JVM to gain confidence in the correctness of the specification; and that it has been written with heavy use of dependent types, this is both to structure the model in a useful way, and to constrain the model to prevent spurious partiality. We describe the structure of the formalisation and the way in which we have used dependent types. 1 Introduction Large scale formalisations of programming languages and systems in mechanised theorem provers have recently become popular [4–6, 9]. In this paper, we describe a formalisation of the Java virtual machine (JVM) [8] in the Coq proof assistant [11]. The principal features of this formalisation are that it is executable, meaning that a purely functional JVM can be extracted from the Coq development and – with some O’Caml glue code – executed on real Java bytecode output from the Java compiler; and that it is structured using dependent types. The motivation for this development is to act as a basis for certified consumer- side Proof-Carrying Code (PCC) [12]. We aim to prove the soundness of program logics and correctness of proof checkers against the model, and extract the proof checkers to produce certified stand-alone tools.

  • 13. Stored-Program Computers
    13. Stored-Program Computers 13.1 Introduction This chapter concentrates on the low-level usage and structure of stored program computers. We focus on a particular hypothetical machine known as the ISC, describing its programming in assembly language. We show how recursion and switch statements are compiled into machine language, and how memory-mapped overlapped I/O is achieved. We also show the logic implement of the ISC, in terms of registers, buses, and finite-state machine controllers. 13.2 Programmer's Abstraction for a Stored-Program Computer By stored-program computer, we mean a machine in which the program, as well as the data, are stored in memory, each word of which can be accessed in uniform time. Most of the high-level language programming the reader has done will likely have used this kind of computer implicitly. However, the program that is stored is not high-level language text. If it were, then it would be necessary to constantly parse this text, which would slow down execution immensely. Instead one of two other forms of storage is used: An abstract syntax representation of the program could be stored. The identifiers in this representation are pre-translated, and the structure is traversed dynamically as needed during execution. This is the approach used by an interpreter for the language. A second approach is to use a compiler for the language. The compiler translates the program into the very low-level language native to the machine, appropriately called machine language. The native machine language acts as a least-common-denominator language for the computer.

  • Chapter 9: Java
    ,ch09.6595 Page 159 Friday, March 25, 2005 2:47 PM Chapter 9 CHAPTER 9 Java Many Java developers like Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) such as Eclipse. Given such well-known alternatives as Java IDEs and Ant, readers could well ask why they should even think of using make on Java projects. This chapter explores the value of make in these situations; in particular, it presents a generalized makefile that can be dropped into just about any Java project with minimal modification and carry out all the standard rebuilding tasks. Using make with Java raises several issues and introduces some opportunities. This is primarily due to three factors: the Java compiler, javac, is extremely fast; the stan- dard Java compiler supports the @filename syntax for reading “command-line param- eters” from a file; and if a Java package is specified, the Java language specifies a path to the .class file. Standard Java compilers are very fast. This is primarily due to the way the import directive works. Similar to a #include in C, this directive is used to allow access to externally defined symbols. However, rather than rereading source code, which then needs to be reparsed and analyzed, Java reads the class files directly. Because the symbols in a class file cannot change during the compilation process, the class files are cached by the compiler. In even medium-sized projects, this means the Java com- piler can avoid rereading, parsing, and analyzing literally millions of lines of code compared with C. A more modest performance improvement is due to the bare mini- mum of optimization performed by most Java compilers.

  • Programming Fundamentals - I Basic Concepts Fall-Semester 2016
    Programming Fundamentals - I Basic Concepts Fall-Semester 2016 Prepared By: Rao Muhammad Umer Lecturer, Web: raoumer.github.io Department of Computer Science & IT, The University of Lahore. What is computer? The term "computer" was originally given to humans who performed numerical calculations using mechanical calculators, such as the abacus and slide rule. The term was later given to a mechanical device as they began replacing the human computers. Today's computers are electronic devices that accept data such as numbers, text, sound, image, animations, video, etc., (input), process that data (converts data to information) , produce output, and then store (storage) the results. A basic computer consists of 4 components: 1. Input devices 2. Central Processing Unit or CPU 3. Output devices 4. Memory Input Devices are used to provide input to the computer basic input devices include keyboard, mouse, touch screens etc. Central Processing Unit acts like a brain, it processes all instructions and data in the computer, the instructions are computer commands, these commands are given to CPU by input devices, some of the instructions are generated by the computer itself Output devices are used to receive computer output, the output, some basic output devices are hard drive disk (HDD, commonly known as hard disk), printers, computer screens (Monitors and LCDs) The computer memory is a temporary storage area. It holds the data and instructions that the Central Processing Unit (CPU) needs. Before a program can be run, the program is loaded from some storage device such as into the memory, the CPU loads the program or part of the program from the memory and executes it.
