Description

Hey dear developer,

  1. If the java file has a package statement at the first line or import other my own packages, Code Runner cannot compile the files. Could you please improve it to support this?

  2. Could you please improve this fabulous extension to make it be able to remove the .class files after compiling and running??

Thank you so much.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the extension compiles and runs Java files currently. Check the code in the extension that handles file compilation and execution. For the first request, modify the compilation command to include the classpath or use javac with proper package handling. For the second request, add a functionality to delete .class files after execution using Node.js fs module.
