Can't use java programming on 10.6.8?

It keeps saying that my mac is not a lion? However, there is no other option on Oracle's website? Some say, Java is already installed on mac? But I could not make it work?? Thanks in advance?

Java 7 updated for 10.7-10.8
Released Feb 1, 2013, fixes 50+ security flaws
http://www.esecurityplanet.com/patches/oracle-responds-to-java-security-flaws-wi th-50-fixes.html
Download and install
https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_mac.xml
For Java versions 6 and below OS X 10.5-10.6 machines
Apple supplies their own version of Java. For Mac OS X 10.6 and below, use the Software Update feature available under the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac.
https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_6.xml
Java SE 6 End of Public Updates
After February 2013, Oracle will no longer post updates of Java SE 6 to its public download sites. We highly recommend downloading and installing Java 7.
If your considering upgrading OS X from 10.6.8 to 10.8 via AppStore to run Java 7
Be forewarned no PowerPC based programs or driver software will run any longer.
Check here BEFORE you upgrade OS X!
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Alternatives if you must run Java 7
If Apple disabled Java 6 in 10.6, and you can't upgrade OS X to 10.8, then your pretty much done with Java in OS X because Oracle won't issue updates for Java 6 anymore.
However you can install Windows 7 and continue to use Java 7+ there until support for Windows 7 ends in 2020.
Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?
If your on 10.6, I very highly recommend the free Virtualbox for the virtual machine software as it gets updates, VMFusion and Parallels have moved on with only 10.7+

How to find cd rom drive in windows and unix platform using java program

Hi,
I am having the requirement of finding the cd rom drive
using java program. I do not know the label and which
one is the cd rom drive. also I want to know how many
cd rom drives are there on my system. I want the solution
for windows and unix platforms.
If have any suggestions please mail to [email protected]
Deepak

Ughhh.. I had the same problem with multi platform file-system detection
First off - Unix.
Do you know for sure you have all your drives mounted?? This could be a big problem because java will not see unmounted drives... So you can scour thru your /etc/fstab to find out which drives are available... or you can mount all and show roots... (Yuck!)... You've got timeouts and all sorts of things to worry about...
I would then shy away from the java.io.File.listRoots() on unix and rely on parsing your fs file. If a user would like to see the medium in the drive. Do a Runtime.exec and mount the drive, then you can grab the filesystem by wrapping it in the java.io.File object. ( NOTE - this will hold well for your NFS mounts as well which might be buried under other FS. So you now have detection for that as well. ) Labels are also noted in this file. Let me know if you don't know the difference between mtab and fstab....
Second - Winders.... Corney but I love saying that.
The listRoots is a good solution. As others have said CD-ROMS will not be writable. Use a combination of getName and getPath to decipher the label and mount point.
Hope this helps!

How to read system eventlog using java program in windows?

How to read system eventlog using java program in windows?
is there any java class available to do this ? or any one having sample code for this?
Your friend Zoe

Hi,
There is no java class for reading event log in windows, so we can do one thing we can use windows system 32 VBS script to read the system log .
The output of this command can be read using java program....
we can use java exec for executing this system32 vbs script.
use the below program and pass the command "eventquery"
plz refer cscript,wscript
import java.io.*;
public class CmdExec {
public static void main(String argv[]) {
try {
String line;
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("Command");
BufferedReader input =
new BufferedReader
(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
input.close();
catch (Exception err) {
err.printStackTrace();
This sample program will list all the system log information....

Can I use java on this machine?

Because the machines of our schools all show the informaiton like below when I type "java":
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
(to execute a class)
or java -jar [-options] jarfile [args...]
(to execute a jar file)
where options include:
-client to select the "client" VM
-server to select the "server" VM
-hotspot is a synonym for the "client" VM [deprecated]
The default VM is client.
-cp -classpath <directories and zip/jar files separated by ;>
set search path for application classes and resources
-D<name>=<value>
set a system property
-verbose[:class|gc|jni]
enable verbose output
-version print product version and exit
-showversion print product version and continue
-? -help print this help message
-X print help on non-standard options
-ea[:<packagename>...|:<classname>]
-enableassertions[:<packagename>...|:<classname>]

How can I run java program on these machines?

By following what the usage message tells you.
Bare minimum:java SomeClass (You don't actually type "SomeClass." That's just a generic placeholder for the name of the class whose main method you want to run.
More common: java -cp C:\some\path;C:\some\other\path\something.jar SomeClass something somethingElse And again, those are of course just generic placeholders for your real classpath, class, command line arguments.
Of course, to do this, you'll have to have a Java program to run. Do you have one that you want to run? Or are you going to start learning how to code in Java? To write the code, you don't use Java, you use your favorite text editor or an IDE. Then you use javac to compile it and java to run it.

Can i use java

hi, I am assigned to choose a programming language and tool to develope a financial accounting software that is mult-platfom graphical user interface and it is going to be only distributed on the Internet. can I use java? which technology? and how much does it cost the jave development software for software company? is it better than visual studio .net? in what way? please help...

Not only you can, but you should use Java. It is a more mature plateform than .Net. There are a lot af API that does whatever you want to do : GUI, Networking, Web applications, IO, 2D Graphics, 3D graphics etc. It is a very elegant and object-oriented language. Plus there is a big community of Java developpers that can help ( This forum for instance) you and a lot of open source code you can choose from.
You can either use applets, embedded in an HTML page or, use Java Web Start to distribute and run your Java application.
Moreover, there are dozens of Java Editors ( Borland JBuilder, Netbeans, IntelliJ IDEA, etc.) and some of them are free.
Hope this helps !

Can't use "java" command

And if I type "java Oper" (It compiled normally and worked on my school computer) it gives me this error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Oper
It works everywhere but on my computer...
Oh, and I have Java Builder 3 University Edition installed. When I use that to compile + run my program, it works perfectely... I just can't use "java" in command prompt. I have a Windows ME.
Another note, this may be related: I can't use certain Java applets on my computer, like the IRC applets for example. I tried it on both Netscape 7.01 and Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106. It displays the same kind of error, the Exception in thread "..." java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ... .
And I've already tried uninstalling + reinstalling. Any other suggestions?

start -> run -> cmd
(if it doesn't open command prompt, then try command instead of cmd)
once you have reached command prompt, then you change to some empty directory where you would like to create java or class files. (use cd command for that)
once you have reached that directory, type: notepad Hello.java
(it should open notepad, and it should prompt you a question if you want to create file Hello.java (since it didn't excist) ... click yes)
in notepad type the following:class Hello {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello");
}once you have written that into notepad, then click File and choose Save from there.
now you may close your notepad.
now go back to that command prompt and type in command dir Hello.*
it should lis you all Hello.* files, and Hello.java should be one of these.
now, when you have seen that in your current directory a Hello.java does excist, you may type javac Hello.java
if it does compile whitout any errors then everything is OK so far.
type again dir Hello.*
now you should see two files, Hello.java and Hello.class
if you now saw that Hello.class was in the current directory, you may type the following command: java Hello
it should display a String "Hello" on your screen.
if it doesn't work, then you have problem with java not working from commandline (some classpaths are wrong or unset or smthng similar)
if you suspect that something doesn't work, then always test it with simplest task.

Executing Jar Application using Java Programs

Hello there,
How can I run a java application using java programs.
Desc:
public class someapp {
public static void main(String[] ext) {
// How can I execute a jar application from here through java code
}

You could use java.lang.Runtime.exec(). Another way could be loading the main class of the jar file and invoking its main method dynamically.
