How to open all .java files in jshell? about 2122-s2

[daitenshionyan]

You can opening jshell with multiple *.java
eg. jshell *.java *.java *.java *.java

A bunch of error messages will come out but if you do enough *.java it should work assuming that all your files can compile.
I think this causes jshell to try to open all your file as many times as you *.java. The previous *.java will open some files so the next can open the files that depend on those opened before. So if you do enough *.java everything should open. There is no way to know if it worked until you test out your code.

a whole bunch of error messages and then...

On your terminal, simply
jshell File1.java File2.java File3.java ...

I don't think is possible using jshell to open all the files directly since is running the files alphabetically, and some files might depend on certain files to be executed first i.e. inheritance, interface, etc.

You can use jshell *.java, but it will open them alphabetically so it won't always work.

Hi, what about typing out all the file names that you require following the word jshell in ur terminal,
for example in your terminal before you open jshell: jshell Cruise.java Loader.java RecycledLoader.java SmallCruise.java BigCruise.java ImList.java
this will open all the files you need in jshell

I think because the nature of jshell requires you to open in order of dependency, there's no way to easily open all files with something like a *.java without some dependency breaking. You could just keep a txt file somewhere with the full command for easy reference.

you can open up all the files by 'jshell' the files one by one like this

[Brianliew77]

you can use *.java to open all java files in the particular directory you're in. However it may not work is there are dependencies hence its best to type it out individually in order of dependency!

A little unrelated, but it would be good if the admins could give us a test jsh file for us to download. If our code works then when we run the test jsh file, it will print "Level 1 passed all test cases", otherwise print "Level 1 failed test case: new Request(xx, yy, zz) = ..." I believe this will seriously save us lots of time which we could better use to plan and design our code.

I made a bash one-liner that does this n-amount of times.

f=(*.java);s=$(printf "%20s" "");eval "jshell "${s// /${f[@]} }""

To specify what n is, change the 20 in the printf. Currently n=20. As long as n is larger than the number of .java files you have, there shouldn't be an issue.

You can use jshell fileName.java fileName2.java... etc. and you can use the tab key to autocomplete file names. When compiling you can use javac *.java
