- JavaCompiler provides (and enforces) a use-once method to compile a list of source files. - It invokes the various phases of the compiler to cause those source files to be compiled. -

All the files given on the command line are parsed, to build a - list of parse trees. Lexing and parsing are done with - Scanner and - Parser. - Lexical and syntax errors will be detected here. -
- Note: Additional files may be parsed later, if they are found on the class/source path, and if they are newer than their matching class file. -
-
For each of the parse trees, their symbols are "entered", using - Enter. This will also set up a "to do" list of additional work to be done to compile those parse trees. - (more...) -
If source code or stub code will be generated, a list is made - (in rootClasses) of all the top level classes defined in the parse trees. This will be used later, to check whether a class being processed was directly provided on the command line or not. -
Then, for as long as there is work on the "to do" list, - JavaCompiler processes entries from the "to do" list. - In so doing, the compiler might find additional classes that need to be - processed, which may result in additional entries being added to the - "to do" list. (more...) -
Print final messages.
Return a list of class symbols, perhaps just those from - final lower (may not include top level classes) -
