How do I compile my Java source in JEdit?
There are a number of plugins that you can use to compile Java source code. You can run a Java compiler on the command line in the “System” shell of the Console plugin. If you are using the JCompiler plugin, you will have a “JCompiler” shell in the Console plugin, and you can run the compile command for the current file, or the compilepkg command on all of the current directory’s source code files. You can also use the “Ant” commandos from the Console plugin or the AntFarm plugin to run complex builds on a project of source code files, using a build.xml file to specify build commands and dependencies.
