java.exe=jvm and javac .exe=compiler

I think

• java.exe = JVM
• javac.exe = co开发者_如何学Pythonmpiler

Is this right?

It's a bit of a simplification, but mostly yes.

java.exe is how you start the JVM. javac.exe is how you start the compiler.

The actual implementation of the JVM and compiler doesn't lie within those particular files (only), however.
