Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m

Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m

Is caused from Treehouse changing how much memory the console is able to access in workspaces. It pops up to let you know that the console Treehouse has built the app in accepts more memory. It has no effect on your actual code. Everything that comes after it, is what is supposed to be printed out. So you can pretty much ignore it.

The errors you are receiving are not from the Picked up "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m," but instead compile errors or standard runtime errors.

Introductions.java:10: error: reached end of file while parsing } ^ 1 error

The error above means there is something wrong with your file, so that you cannot compile it by typing javac Introductions.java

In order to see that you have to post Introductions.java here in forum.

The second error comes when you type

java Introductions

Error: Could not find or load main class Introductions

This error comes because you have error above, because you have not compiled your Introductions.java, you obviously cannot run.

So first you have to compile so that after typing

javac Introductions.java

There is no errors.

Only after that you can type java Introductions...

And just like Trevaun Turner said, please disregard all "Picked up" warnings
