Java - How would I compile this project?

    Hello

    This is probably really basic, but I am new to Java so I cannot get it to work.

    I am using an object database called Versant to persist Java objects.

    I use Versant to compile and run my code.

    It's all working fine.

    However...

    If I want to use something like the Scanner class to read in values from the user, I am unable to do this, as Versant does not offer a console window. Basically it just compiles code and inserts / removes objects from the database.

    Versant requires a properties file, and numerous other files for its code to work.

    Is there any way I can use something like JCreator to run this code, so I have a console window which can be used to enter user data?

    Any help or pointers greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    I'm not sure if you even asked a question there -

    I would recommend using Hibernate for relational persistence and you can configure xdoclet to auto-generate any config required for hibernate to run.
    ANT can be configured to use xdoclet & compile/deploy your application.

    As for user input... write a simple Java app maybe? Or a simple form in a webapp?

    Ditto, not sure where the question is here. The Scanner just allows you to take a stream, define some delimiters, parse and cast ... that does not have anything to do with Versant.

    Is this a pre-existing database you are trying to access?

    Don't know if this is what you are looking for, but there is a visual tool, vdbinspector that will allow you to visually display, query, edit information in the database.

    Cheers,
