java compiler.run,使用JavaCompiler以编程方式编译Java？

I got this Java code from another Stack Overflow thread

import java.io.*;

import javax.tools.JavaCompiler;

import javax.tools.ToolProvider;

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{

String source = " public class Test { public static void main(String args[]) { System.out.println(\"hello\"); } }";

// Save source in .java file.

File root = new File("C:\\java\\");

root.mkdir();

File sourceFile = new File(root, "\\Test.java");

Writer writer = new FileWriter(sourceFile);

writer.write(source);

writer.close();

// Compile source file.

JavaCompiler compiler = ToolProvider.getSystemJavaCompiler();

compiler.run(null, null, null, sourceFile.getPath());

}

}

But I keep getting a NullPointerException like this

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.zove.compiler.Main.main(Main.java:24)

It does compile but it throws the exception at runtime.

What am I doing wrong?

Your code works fine for me when I execute it using the JDK. If I execute it using the JRE I get a NullPointerException on compiler.run(...) like you.

Therefore I assume that you only have to switch the Java runtime for executing your code.
