How to create JShell instance programmatically in Java 9?
Article Introduction:JShell is an interactive tool introduced since Java9. It is Java's first official REPL tool for creating a simple programming environment from the command line to read user input, evaluate it, and print the results. We can create new JShell instances programmatically using Java language. JShell and its associated API can be found under the jdk.jshell package. We can use the static method create() of the JShell class to obtain a new instance of JShell. The eval() method of the JShell class is used to add an expression to a JShell instance.

How to handle exceptions in JShell in Java 9?
Article Introduction:In Java 9, JShell provides a fast and friendly environment that allows us to quickly explore, discover and experiment with Java language features and rich libraries. In JShell, there is no need to catch exceptions manually. JShell automatically catches each exception and displays the relevant information, then displays the next JShell prompt so we can continue the session. It also works with unchecked exceptions. By automatically catching both checked and unchecked exceptions, JShell makes it easier for us to experiment with methods that throw checked exceptions. In the example below, an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException occurs because the value for "values[4]" is not found. Exampl

How do we avoid compilation errors in JShell in Java 9?
Article Introduction:JShell is an interactive tool that enables us to execute java code and display the output immediately. JShell is a REPL (read-evaluate-print-loop) tool run from the command line prompt. If we need to avoid compilation errors in JShell then we have to declare these variables before using it. Error messages in JShell can use the symbols "^--^" to highlight errors. In the code snippet below, an int variable "div" is declared trying to use variables that have not been declared yet: num1 and num2, so JShell reports a compilation error indicating that the compiler cannot find these variables.

How can we customize how JShell is launched in Java 9?
Article Introduction:JShell is an interactive REPL tool for executing and evaluating simple Java programs such as variable declarations, statements, expressions, etc. When the JShell tool starts, the code is preloaded by default. To display this code we simply start the command "/list-start". You can ask JShell to automatically load them on startup using the following command: "/setstart[-retain][Type]". The first option "-retain" tells JShell to record the [Type] required for the next JShell session to start. If we do not specify, the default startup can be started when opening a new session /setstart[-ret

How to implement lambda expression in JShell in Java 9?
Article Introduction:JShell is Java's first REPL and command line tool, providing interactive use of elements of the Java programming language. We can use this tool to test functionality in the isolated environment of a class. JShell creates a simple and easy-to-use programming environment on the command line, which accepts user input, reads and prints the results. A lambda expression is a created function that does not belong to any class. In the following example, we can implement a lambda expression in JShell. C:\Users\User>jshell|WelcometoJShell--Vers

How to create scratch variable in JShell in Java 9?
Article Introduction:JShell is a REPL interactive tool introduced in Java 9 for executing and evaluating simple Java programs, such as variable declarations, statements, expressions, and programs that do not use the main() method. In JShell, any value returned by the snippet is automatically saved into a temporary variable. These temporary variables can be represented by $. When we do not assign the result of an expression to a variable, a temporary variable is created in JShell so that the output of the expression can be used later. In the following code snippet, six temporary variables are created C:\Users\User>jshell|WelcometoJShell--Version9.0.4|Foran

How to define control flow statements in JShell in Java 9?
Article Introduction:JShell is a new interactive command line tool introduced in Java9. This tool can also be called REPL (Read-Eval-Print-Loop) because it accepts input, evaluates it and returns the output to the user via the command line. We can use JShell to execute multi-line control flow statements just like Java. Control flow statements such as if-else statements, for-loop and while-loop can also be executed in JShell. The multi-line statements it recognizes are prompts with the symbol "...>", indicating the input of the next line of statements. If-Else statement example jshell>intdistance=50distance==
