Develop code in BlueJ IDEIDE: Integrated Development EnvironmentBlueJ == A free Java Development Environment designed for beginners

http://www.bluej.org/

Install BlueJ with JDKJDK == Java Development Kit

Launch BlueJ IDE

Create a BlueJ ProjectProject New Project … Select Directory “PrintName”

Create a “class” (chunk of code)New Class… “DoName” Ok

Open the “doName” class file.Double click the “DoName” class

icon.Striped icon == Not Yet

Compiled.

A Generic Template Appears.

Select and delete the default code.

Add main method to classpublic static void main(String [] args){

System.out.print("My name is Gerry.");}

Compile Your Program.Compiling converts source code

to ML.

Check for syntax errors.Check that code compiled

Close.

Create new object from class.Right click class icon Select “ void main (String[ ]

args) ”

Execute “Ok” & View Output.

“Discussions” allow exchange of help & advice with other students.See next slide for detailed example.

Select for detailed discussions.
