The Three Java Command Window Contexts

---

The Java Command Window is used in different ways depending on the context from where it has been launched.

IDE

A Command Window may be launched from the IDE, using the "New Command Window..." item on the "Project" menu. This Command Window will inherit the classpath as set in the dynamic classpath in the IDE. Its symbol table will initially have three items on it: the display object, which is set to the current display, as well as super and this which are set to a com.datarp.midp.PublicMidlet. This is a MIDlet which has all the normal methods of a MIDlet set public.

This Command Window may be used for general purpose experimentation with Java statements and for execution and testing of classes.
