Doesn't Redhat 8.0 come with Java

I just installed RH 8.0, to test out and see if it would be a good programming environment for me. But I thought, RH 8.0 came with the Java compiler and interpreter, along with other stuff. In fact during installation I remember checking all the packages that I wanted, and I remember checking for the java compiler and interpreter. Now I looked at my path in my .bashrc (?) and it doesn't specify any java directory. So now I am really confused. If I wanted to program in java in RH, do I have to download the JDK? Or can I just find the java files somewhere hidden in my system?

Your compiler should probably be at /bin/javac. If you don't find it there do this:
find / -name javac
If you get a bunch of shit try this
find / -name javac 2> /dev/null
If you don't get a good directory to the compiler from those, you don't have the developement environment installed.
Last piece of advice, buy a good UNIX or LINUX book. You're not going to get far without a good library. You can ask questions here (in this thread), but this supposed to be a Java forum after all (I don't mind terribly, I know more about Linux than Java anyway).
Another great idea is to do searches on the net for your problems. A great resource is www.redhat.com, but be careful of versioning, redhat has the potential to be the M$ if they don't stop changing everything in every version. There is also plenty of Linux resources out there, but you have to be careful with that too, they tend to be proprietary depending on who knows what about what.
Funny that a GNU OS could get proprietary. That's what happens when folks realize you can make money off something.

  • Why doesn't my Macbook pro come with iPhoto or iMovie? I've already tried

    Why doesn't my Macbook pro come with iPhoto or iMovie? I have everything updated to the fullest capacity. Still..nothing..Help me!

    If you erase the MacBook Pro and made a clean install, see this document:  OS X: About OS X Recovery  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X
    If your computer came with OS X Lion or later and you erase your hard disk and install OS X, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
    After installation, start (up) from OS X.
    Choose App Store from the Apple menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

  • Why doesn't the version of Notepad that comes with Java work?

    Something is wrong with the version of Notepad that comes with the j2sdk1.4.2. When I click on my desktop icon I get "Java Webstart Application Manager". I highlight "Notepad App" and continue. Notepad opens up I type in my code. Then I click on "Save" and choose my Java folder to save the file. Now at the bottom it says "Files of type... and it seems to me I should be able to save the file as type Java. But all it says is "all files." When I look in my Java folder the file is there but it just says type "file". Isn't it supposed to be saved as a "Java" file?
    And I still can't invoke the compiler at the command line nor run my program. But I'm going to try it again.

    A java file is a test file with a .java extension. There is nothing special about it.
    If you want an editor try eclipse, this edits,compiles,runs,debugs, refactors and much more.

  • Does the latest MacBook Air OS come with  Java Development Kit, version 1.6?

    I need to purchase a laptop  to use for an online Java class.  The website I was given to download JDK 1.6 does not include a download for Mac OS.  I have heard that JDK 1.6 is part of Mountain Lion.  Can anyone confirm that, and if so, how is it accessed?  Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Java doesn't come with Mac OS X since the Lion release, so you will have to install Java manually after setting up the MacBook.
    You just have to install Java 6 from Apple > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572

  • Doesn't the Imacs already come with OS X already installed?

    Do i need to download the Install Dics that come with the Imac? What comes in the bundled software?

    The bundled software that comes with an iMac varies depending on when it is sold. The current models come with Tiger (OS 10.4) & the applications always bundled with it (Spotlight, Dashboard, Mail, iChat AV, Safari, Address Book, QuickTime, iCal, DVD Player, & the Xcode Developer Tools) plus the iLife ’08 bundle (iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, iWeb, & GarageBand). Of these, only QuickTime, Xcode Developer Tools, & iTunes can be downloaded independently & for free.
    All of this is pre-installed on the iMac & can be re-installed if need be from the system disks that come with it -- you do not need to nor can you download them, except as noted above. The disk set also includes a version of Apple Hardware Test (AHT) specific to the hardware/model, which can only be run by booting the machine directly into it -- in effect it is a special purpose OS, not an application, & can be obtained & used in no other way. The disk set also includes a limited version of the Tiger OS itself, which supports the applications on the set, including the Installer application & some utilities like Disk Utility. This enables you to boot from disk one of the set even if your hard drive or its installed OS is damaged or missing to do maintenance or installations.
    For these reasons, you should treat the installer disk set as an essential part of the iMac & keep it in a safe place.

  • Problem with java, ASCII and Linux

    Hi Friends,
    I has a Linux RedHat 9.0 with a jre1.5.0_04 (rpm package of Sun).
    I has a problem with ASCII , for example :
    import java.io.*;
    public class HolaMundo
    public static void main (String[] args)
    System.out.println("Hol� M�ndo");
    this programs runs ok on my windows jdk so it prints "Hol� M�ndo", but when i run the same HolaMundo.class program on my linux redhat it prints "Hol�� M��ndo"
    I think the problem is with the ASCII table that uses the linux version of jre, but i dont know how to solve this problem. I need a Spanish-European ASCII table on my application but i think it is working with a US-ASCII table.
    Then i has installed a kaffe 1.0 (rpm) java machie on this linux and this solve the problem but i has another problems of compatibility with this old version of java kaffe.
    Do you know whats happening?
    Thanks in advance.

    The problem doesn't have to do anything with Java or Linux as far as i can see. It's more likely a problem with Windows XP and IE. Be assured that normally downloading the Linux JDK in windows is not a problem.

  • How to install the JRE that comes with JME 3.0 to a Windows Mobile device

    From Sun's JME download page:
    Integration with 3rd party emulators and Windows Mobile devices
    The new Java ME Platform SDK architecture allows integration of 3rd party emulators and devices. Java ME Platform SDK comes with Sun's Java runtime environment for Windows Mobile. A user can install this runtime on a Windows Mobile device or a Microsoft device emulator and experience all the on-device features of Java ME Platform SDK.*
    My question is, how can I install the Java runtime environment that comes with Java ME Platform SDK 3.0 to a Windows Mobile device. I am a newbie in this device programming and I'm setting up my development environment. So far, I have installed JME in my computer, and have also installed both the Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6 emulator. I've been searching the internet for answers, but it always points me to using a third party java runtime such us Mysaifu, etc. I would like to stick with what is packaged with JME if possible.
    If anybody assist me or direct me to an online documentation on how to do this. All help is greatly appreciated :-)

    I had some success installing on a real Mobile 5 device [http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5344195]
    There is a link to a doc on the main download page, item 5 under How to Install. [http://java.sun.com/javame/downloads/sdk30ea.jsp] I used this for the real device, Treo 700w. Did not try it with an emulator.
    The support looks to be an emulator rather than a JVM per say. But then again I could be wrong on that. I too had poked around looking for a JVM, CrEme, J9, etc..
    I do have a commercial app installed on the Treo that uses IBM's J9, which is seems requires a contact with a sales person to get ahold of. I had hoped to find something that might clue me in on how to "hook up" my own J2ME app with the J9 installed by the commercial package. But I've pretty much decided to get a real J2ME handset rather than continue to waste my time hacking up something with WM. Now the question is which one makes a good reference platform?

  • Computers with Java pre-installed

    I am working with a customer looking to purchase a numnber oif PCs for a Java application and am looking for a list of namer brand computers that come with Java pre-installed. I know Dell pre-installs Java, but they are particularly interested in HP systems. Does anyone know of a comprehensive list of PC verndors who pre-install Java, and if not, if specifically HP pre-installs?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for the replies. I know it is easy to install, we are a Java developer, it's just a question from my customer. This sort of information should be made readily available by Sun.
    Anyone have any idea about HP?

    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?
