So I want to create a function that does all this for me (and gets rid of the class files afterwards). The code below is my attempt. Could someone let me know how I can fix my code?

Oh and in case anyone would like to learn from the solution I will post it too.
func! CompileFolderJava()

" compile all java files in folder
:!javac %:p:h/*.java

" save the variable containing current path
:let mypath = expand(":cd %:p:h")

" a java thing I have to be in this directory to call java main
:cd ..

" run all the java files in folder
:!java %:p:h:t.Main

" get back to current directory
:execute mypath

" delete all the .class files in folder
:!rm %:p:h/*.class
endfunc
