A simple Java REPL (Read Evaluate Print Loop) program for interactive Java coding from the Windows command prompt, allowing developers to run and test Java code in real-time.
JREPL.BAT is a simple Java REPL (Read Evaluate Print Loop) program for Windows. It provides an interactive command-line interface to run Java code without needing to write complete Java classes or a main method.
To use JREPL.BAT, you simply launch it from the Windows command prompt. It will start the Java runtime and present you with a prompt where you can type in Java statements and expressions. Anything you enter will be evaluated in real-time and the results printed back to the console.
This allows testing Java snippets quickly without going through the compile-run cycle. It can be handy for trying out Java APIs, prototyping code, testing regular expressions, and experimenting with Java in an interactive manner.
As it runs on the Windows prompt, JREPL.BAT has limited capabilities compared to more full-featured REPLs and IDEs. But its simplicity makes it very easy to get started for basic Java experimentation.
