Try Out Development Containers: Java

This is a sample project to go along with the "try" quick start for the VS Code Remote - Containers extension.

If you aren't already following the quick start, see here.

Things to try

One you have this sample opened in a container, you can use it exactly like you would if you cloned it locally. Here's some things to try:

1. Edit:
   1. Open src\main\java\com\mycompany\app\App.java
   2. Try adding some code and check out the language features.
2. Terminal: Press ctrl+shift+` and type uname and or other Linux commands inside the container from the terminal window.
3. Build, Run and debug:
   1. Open src\main\java\com\mycompany\app\App.java
   2. Add a breakpoint.
   3. Press F5 to launch the app in the container.
   4. Once the breakpoint is hit, over variables, step, and try things out.
4. Run a Test:
   1. Open src\main\java\com\mycompany\app\AppTest.java
   2. Put a breakpoint in a test
   3. Click the Debug Test in the Code Lens above the function and watch it hit the breakpoint.
5. Explore: Check out the Java Dependencies and Maven Projects explorers or other VS Code features to see more!

Setting up the development container

Follow these steps to open this sample in a container:

1. If this is your first time using a development container, please follow the getting started steps to set everything up correctly.

2. If you're not yet in a development container, use Remote - Container: Reopen Folder in Container from the Command Palette. You activate the command palette with F1.

3. Selected cloned copy of this folder, wait for the container to start, and try things out!
