How can I execute a project with few a .java files?

[willow goblet]

I'm quite new to java and I have tried so many different ways of getting a project running that has a few .java files with it.
I have tried netbeans and also just running javac inside the directory, but can't just get it to work, could anyone please help me out?
Thank you

in your folder finalProject run
javac *.java
then depending in which file your main method is located run
java FILENAME (without any extension)

it should work however I get errors of chromedriver even though in the code it gets the chromedriver path from lib

chromeUser.java:5: error: package org.openqa.selenium does not exist
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
                          ^
chromeUser.java:6: error: package org.openqa.selenium.chrome does not exist
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
                                 ^
chromeUser.java:7: error: package org.openqa.selenium.chrome does not exist
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeOptions;```

this is the project im trying to run

i also have the newest chromedriver installed

so no clue on that

In that case you'll have to include the library manually
javac -cp library.jar *.java

but you should be able to build and package as a jar in netbeans.

i'll try this, i got only experience with python so java has kinda different rules here

[willow goblet]

for some reason i cannot open the folder with netbeans

[unkempt pasture]

but didn't you setup your project with netbeans ?

[willow goblet]

nope but i tried

when i try to open a project

like i keep pressing the open project but it doesn't do anything

[unkempt pasture]

yeah that's probably because there is no configuration file for the project, just the source files. You should be possible to clone the project straight from github using netbeans, though I can't tell you how.
