IMPORT JAVA classname
The IMPORT JAVA
instruction imports Java module elements.
Syntax
IMPORT JAVA [ packagename . [...] ] classname
- packagename and classname define the Java class to be imported.
Usage
The IMPORT JAVA
instruction can be used to import a Java class.
Important: At runtime, the imported Java classes are only loaded on demand, when the
program flow reaches an instruction that uses the class. For example, when reaching the declaration
of a variable defined to reference an object of a Java class.
The name specified after the IMPORT JAVA
instruction is
case-sensitive.
The CLASSPATH environment variable defines the directories for Java packages. See the Java documentation for more details.
Note: To mimic the Java import rules, the fglcomp compiler allows subsequent
IMPORT JAVA
instructions with the same class name. However, it is recommended that
you avoid duplicating the same IMPORT JAVA
instructions:IMPORT JAVA java.util.regex.Matcher
