How to compile and run java source code in memory [duplicate] - java-compiler-api

Question

This question already has answers here:
Compile code fully in memory with javax.tools.JavaCompiler [duplicate]
(7 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I want to treat a String as a Java file then compile and run it. In other words, use Java as a script language.
To get better performance, we should avoid writing .class files to disk.

Answer 1

This answer is from one of my blogs, Compile and Run Java Source Code in Memory.
Here are the three source code files.

Explanations:
In order to represent a Java source file in memory instead of disk, I defined a StringInputBuffer class in the MemoryJavaFileManager.java.
To save the compiled .class files in memory, I implemented a class MemoryJavaFileManager. The main idea is to override the function getJavaFileForOutput() to store bytecodes into a map.
To load the bytecodes in memory, I have to implement a customized classloader MemoryClassLoader, which reads bytecodes in the map and turn them into classes.
Here is a unite test.
package me.soulmachine.compiler;
import org.junit.Test;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
public class MemoryJavaCompilerTest {
private final static MemoryJavaCompiler compiler = new MemoryJavaCompiler();
#Test public void compileStaticMethodTest()
throws ClassNotFoundException, InvocationTargetException, IllegalAccessException {
final String source = "public final class Solution {\n"
+ "public static String greeting(String name) {\n"
+ "\treturn \"Hello \" + name;\n" + "}\n}\n";
final Method greeting = compiler.compileStaticMethod("greeting", "Solution", source);
final Object result = greeting.invoke(null, "soulmachine");
assertEquals("Hello soulmachine", result.toString());
}
}
