Building Java package (javac to all files)

Question

How to compile all files in directory to *.class files?

Answer 1

Well, this seems pretty obvious, so I may be missing something

javac *.java

(With appropriate library references etc.)

Or perhaps:

javac -d bin *.java

to javac create the right directory structure for the output.

Were you looking for something more sophisticated? If so, could you give more details (and also which platform you're on)?
