Compiling and Running The Project

Download and install Java Software Development Kit (JDK) from the link: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk9-downloads-3848520.html On Windows: Before you run your code on command line, make sure that Windows can find the Java compiler and interpreter by adding the Java installation directory to the Windows ‘Path’ environment variable. (Go to Computer -> System Properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables -> System variables and Edit Path variable under System Variables. Add the Java installation path (e.g. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9.0.1\bin ) to the beginning of the ‘Path’ variable. ) On Macs: If the installation of Eclipse fails try the following: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46570624/mac-os-x-eclipse-ide-installation-metadata-log-error

To run your code on the command line:

Put all java files, .jar files for the modules you use, applet.policy file, and the config.XML file in a single directory. You can then compile the program with the following command: javac *.java and run the applet with appletviewer Main.java -J-Djava.security.policy=applet.policy applet.policy grants all permissions to the applet to access the local resources. You may alternatively use an IDE (e.g., Eclipse). (You can download Eclipse at https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/) On Mac or Linux: Change line #99 as follows before you compile and run your code: File fXmlFile = new File("./config.xml"); When you open the skeleton code on Eclipse if there are compile time errors, the environment for Eclipse may not be set directly. Go to Window>Preferences, click Java/InstalledJREs. Make sure that the correct JDK is selected.

To get your java version:

In a terminal simply run the command -
java -version [Enter]

How to Play:

This is a simple ball game where the player tries to click on the moving balls before they get out of the scene. The player will score points every time she/he hits a ball. The faster the ball is when player hits the ball, the more points she/he will score.
