How to run a project with the command prompt?

[TexanProgrammer]

Well this is my first post here:)

Well I haven't been able to find this on the internet. When I go to run my project I want it to run in the command prompt, like it does in JCreator. Instead it runs in the IDE itself. Any ideas?

Thanks

IDE gives you a shell, but you want to run in a real shell try java -jar "your jar file name" in bash

* download JDK
* create a folder where you want to save all your work.
* open notepad and write your java code and save it in that folder.
*open command promt..
* change directory to that folder
* set your path e.g C:\mywork> set path=%path%;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09\bin
here mywork is the folder you have created to save your java files
* after you set path
* type javac <filename>
java filename

you are done..!

Is there a way to run it in there automatically like in JCreator?
