This short tutorial will explain how to install the correct JRE version of Linux, because when we will download files from the Sun page there are so many that sometimes do not know what to install. Installation
tested ubuntu 7.10 desktop, Ubuntu 8.04 desktop and server.
Packages needed:
=> sun-java6-bin
sun-java6-demo
: Sun Java Development Kit (JDK) 6 demos
=> sun-java6-jdk => sun-java6-jre : Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6
Install Sun Java 6
Open a shell (terminal) and type the following to install JDK and JRE:
- $ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk
- here displays a message indicating all the dependencies of packages to install, press S to accept. Default install Java version
- Ubuntu Linux comes with update-java-alternatives utility updates all the alternatives that belong to a development kit for Java. To select, Sun JVM as provided type:
- $ sudo update-java-alternatives-s java-6-sun
. This file defines the default search order system for jvm (java virtual machine). Each list of JVM in JAVA_HOME should be in this file. The default system JVM is the first one available from top to bottom. Open
/ etc / jvm
sure to add
/ usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
at the top of the list JVM.
The file should read:
/ usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun / usr / lib / jvm / java-gcj
/ usr / lib / jvm / ia32-java-1.5.0-sun
/ usr
Save and close the file. (Esc: wq)
Setting environment variable
Test your new JDK
Type the following command to display the version:
$ java-version
should display a message like this
:
Java (TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05) Java HotSpot
/ usr / lib / jvm / ia32-java-1.5.0-sun
/ usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun
/ usr
Save and close the file. (Esc: wq)
Setting environment variable
also need to set JAVA_HOME and PATH (system wide) configuration . Open your $ HOME /. Bash_profile or / etc / profile:
$ vi $ HOME / .bash_profile
Add line:
export JAVA_HOME = / usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun export PATH = $ PATH: $ JAVA_HOME / bin
Save and close the file. (Esc: wq)
Test your new JDK
Type the following command to display the version:
:
java version "1.6.0_03"
Java (TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05) Java HotSpot
(TM) Server VM (build 1.6.0_03-b05, mixed mode)
(If you see this happiness you already have everything you need installed)
First program (Java Hello World)
$ vi holaMundo.java
Type the following code: public
class HelloWorld {
public static void
main (String
]
args) {
[]
args) {
System . out.println ( "Hello, World!" ) ; }} Save and close the file. holaMundo.java compile and run the program by typing two commands:
holaMundo.java $ javac $ java HelloWorld out: Hello, World!
