Java compilation and execution support has been successfully added to both the backend and frontend.
-
✅ Added
execute_java_code()function that:- Extracts the public class name from Java code using regex
- Compiles Java code using
javac - Executes compiled code using
javacommand - Handles compilation errors and runtime errors
- Cleans up temporary files after execution
-
✅ Updated language validation to include
"java" -
✅ Updated code execution logic to route Java code to the new executor
-
✅ Updated test case runner to support Java
- ✅ Installed
@codemirror/lang-javapackage - ✅ Imported Java language support
- ✅ Added Java case in
getLanguageSupport()method for syntax highlighting and autocomplete
- ✅ Updated supported languages list to include
'java' - ✅ Monaco Editor has built-in Java support, no additional configuration needed
The code editor now supports:
- ✅ JavaScript/JS
- ✅ Python/Py
- ✅ C++/CPP
- ✅ Java (NEW!)
To run Java code, the server must have:
- Java Development Kit (JDK) installed (includes
javaccompiler) - Java Runtime Environment (JRE) included in JDK
Note: Currently, the server has JRE but not JDK. To enable Java execution:
# Install JDK (example for macOS)
brew install openjdk
# Or download from: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/A test script has been created at backend/test_java_execution.py to verify Java execution.
To test:
- Ensure JDK is installed:
javac -version - Start the backend server
- Run:
python3 backend/test_java_execution.py
Your existing Java modules will now work with the code editor:
coding---java-ada94bbc.jsoncoding---java-e5f9cef1.jsoncoding---java-640fda73.json- And many more!
Example Java code that can now be executed:
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello from Java!");
int sum = 5 + 10;
System.out.println("5 + 10 = " + sum);
}
}- ✅ Syntax highlighting for Java
- ✅ Autocomplete support for Java
- ✅ Compilation error reporting
- ✅ Runtime error handling
- ✅ Test case execution
- ✅ Execution time tracking
- ✅ Output capture
