Switching compilers by class
A default compiler is set for each class. If you would like to use a different compiler (or a different configuration of a compiler) for that class, you can specify one on the class's property sheet.
To switch compilers for a class:
- Select the object under the Filesystems tab in the Explorer.
- Go to the object's property sheet (by choosing View | Properties from the main menu).
- Click on the Execution tab in the Properties window.
- Rotate through the compiler types by double-clicking on
Compiler
, or click on theCompiler
property's value and choose from the pull-down menu.![]()
By default, there are three choices for Java sources: using Javac internally (in the same VM as the IDE), running Javac externally, and running Fastjavac. Other types of files have different choices.
Tip: To switch compilers for multiple classes simultaneously, select the classes while holding down the CTRL key (or the SHIFT key to select a range of classes) and then switch the compiler on the property sheet.
