Project 1: 1st Cup of Coffee
Before you begin, create a folder in your Projects Folder called Firstname.LastName.project1. All documents you create in this project will be saved into that folder and later loaded to the server for grading.
1. Visit the java.sun site and go to "1st Cup of Coffee". This will have you go through creating a simple java application that you will run on MS-DosPrompt rather than our Java development tool, RealJ. The goal of this exercise is to introduce you to Java at it's most basic level. You will create a simple standalone Java application and a simple Java applet that can be run in a browser. You will end up with 5 basic documents in Wordpad in the folder:
- HelloWorldApp.java
- HelloWorldApp.class
- HelloWorld.java
- HelloWorld.class
- HelloWorld.htm
Save a copy of your entire folder into the Project 1 Folder on the server.
Make sure it has your Firstname.Lastname.project1 as a title. Open up your project on the server in a browser to make sure it appears the way your want it.
