1,972 PointsIssues with console in Workspaces
I recently downloaded the JDK off of the Oracle site to use as a practice space for exercises out of the Java for Beginners book. I followed the instructions in the book, including changing the PATH. Ever since I have been having issues using the workspaces console. When I use the java-repl function, I get a message : "Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m" ...then it follows with the normal javaREPL message. Many of the example exercises given in the videos do not work properly and when I try to play around with my own code, nothing works. What on earth have I done??!!
It would be great if someone could provide guidance on this! Thank you!
