[S.u.S.E. Linux] java apps
Is it possible to run any java apps on my linux box? At www.jars.com there is a huge list of java applications. If it is possible, how do I go about getting them to run. <<Tony>> ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at <A HREF="http://www.hotmail.com"><A HREF="http://www.hotmail.com</A">http://www.hotmail.com -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Yes. You have to compile the kernel with java support (compiled in or as a module, I am not sure if the precompiled kernels have this feature, but they well may) and (from the help of make menuconfig) If you want to use this, read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/java.txt and the Java on Linux HOWTO, available via ftp (user: anonymous) at sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO. You will then need to install the run time system contained in the Java Developers Kit (JDK) as described in the HOWTO. -Wolfgang -- PGP:"finger weissel@jupiter.ph-cip.uni-koeln.de";use a keyserver (3CCC0B59).

Actually, its not even that hard. SuSE ships with the JDK, thats all you need to run java apps. You only have to recompile the kernel if you want .class files to be recognized as executable binaries, so you can type ./MyJavaProg rather than typing java MyJavaProg. Either way you go, you still have to have the JDK, or at least a Java Runtime Environment. jrw -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Because I have upgraded my system by hand so much I cannot remember if I added the JDK. What are the key componets of the JDK so that I can "locate" them? If I cannot find them then you do not need the JDK to run Java bins; but you do need to have the feature on in the kernel. -- Andrew L.

try this: andy@ford:/home/andy > which javac /usr/lib/java/bin/javac andy@ford:/home/andy > which java /usr/lib/java/bin/java andy@ford:/home/andy > i believe that if you have the JRE instead of the full JDK you will have java but not javac (the compiler). for more info try: locate java -- yours, Andy -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
