I am new to Java. I was given some .java
files and was told if I could convert them, then I could use them. It is for a game bot I am using. They changed to a new API which I don't understand, so the bot won't run unless it is implemented in .class
files.
Can someone explain me how to convert these .java
files to fully functional .class
files?

if you want to compile multiple java files into class files then you follow given procedure.
Syntex:
javac <options> <source files>
Example:
javac -cp -d classfolder *.java
here
options are -cp (copy), -d (directory), classfolder (directory name)
source files are * (all) .java files

You need to compile the .java
source code to the .class
byte code. Use a Java compiler like javac
from Sun's JDK, or if you're using an IDE like Eclipse, it already has a compiler that can generate the .class
files for you (usually in the \bin
directory).
javac
javac

You need to compile the java using javac (the java compiler) You can get it as part of the JDK which you can get from Oracle (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
You'll need to run a command like the following
javac foo.java
Which will produce a corresponding foo.class
