java文件不能编译器,Java编译器API无法正常工作，我一直无法解析类javax.tools.JavaCompilerTool和其他类似的类...

I have read that Java 6 has a compiler api which allows you to compile java files from other java code. However whenever I try to import any such class (eg javax.tools.JavaCompilerTool), I get a

unable to resolve class javax.tools.JavaCompilerTool

I searched in all the jar files in the jdk1.6.0_26 installation directory and found no reference to JavaCompilerTool in any jar file in the package javax.tools.

My understanding is that this functionality is in the 1.6 JDK. I am running my application with the java.exe from the \bin directory and not the \jre\bin directory but regardless neither work.

What am I missing? How can the class not be found.

You need to use the javax.tools.JavaCompiler class. Take a look at the javadocs for usage.

Example:

JavaCompiler compiler = ToolProvider.getSystemJavaCompiler();

StandardJavaFileManager fileManager = compiler.getStandardFileManager(null, null, null);

Iterable extends JavaFileObject> compilationUnits = fileManager.getJavaFileObjectsFromFiles(Arrays.asList(new File("HelloWorld.java")));

compiler.getTask(null, fileManager, null, null, null, compilationUnits).call();

fileManager.close();
