How good is java in linux?

I am a linux newbie and was planning to put linux on computer. I wanted to know how good java performs under linux. Is it faster? Is it slower? Also, I seen many people asking for help installing the 1.4.1 implementation. Is it tough to install java on linux ? Note: I plan on installing YellowDog Linux 3.0 when it's released on cd. YellowDog is for PPC's and I'm installing it because I've never had the chance to develop with the Java2 platform on Mac OS because my computer's G3 just can't handle OS X.
Thanks.

I don't know if there is a Linux-PPC version of Java available. And the versions listed on the download page for "Linux" are i386-based (unless otherwise explicitly specified).
As far as Linux, goes: learn the system first before you try to jump into programming on it. "Raw" Unix-systems are VERY different, especially if you're coming straight from a Mac-OS. Get a good book and work through it. Linux is getting better at being a good "out-of-the-box" experience, but there's a lot of stuff in there...

  • How to install Java in ASUS EeePC Linux OS?

    Who knows how to install a Java to a Linux OS in ASUS EeePC? I purchased an EeePC 4GB Surf for my programming subjects. But then, I couldn't use the Eclipse if I don't have Java installed on the pc. Do you know how to put Java in a ASUS EeePC 4GB Surf Linux OS?

    Some programs like FrostWire will not work without Java being upgraded. To do this:
    1.
    Use the Synaptic Package manager to add the repository: deb http://geekconnection.org xandros4 main. If you have no clue what that means read Installing software on the EEE - quick beginner's guide on the wiki.
    2.
    After Synaptic has downloaded the files to update the repository; Scroll through the available items to locate xandros-sun-jre1.5; Mark it for installation; Click Apply.
    The approximate size of this installation of Java is 30Mb and it is reported in this thread on the forum that after this version of Java was installed FrostWire works.

  • How to execute Java.exe on MAC, LINUX, UNIX...

    okay, I know this is very stupid, but can anybody tell me how to run Java.exe on MAC, LINUX, UNIX?
    I know how to run it from windows, I have a batch file created in windows, will it work on MAC, LINUX and UNIX as well? (I'm not sure if on other OS, there is such a file type call *.bat)

    See what I mean about probably wanting a beginner's book on Unix and/or shell scripting?
    okay crackers, the only thing that I have to do is put
    in the name of my program into "your program here".Not necessarily. There's the ClassPath, program parameters, etc. What you need to put in the "your program here" depends upon your program. What I did was allow the script to be invoked with command-line parameters and you could (depending upon your program) put "-jar myjar.jar" in the indicated spot, if your JAR file was runnable.
    The rest no need to change. right?I don't know. What does your program need? Only you can answer that, not me. I just furnished an example.

  • Java in Linux

    Can I use Gtk components in my java applications?
    I tried to install java in linux. But I had lots of problems. So I decided to do this with a plan. Because I have to install lots of things or I made it hard for me.
    What shall I install and in which queue shall I install them? (JDK, JRE, Java studio or netbeans...)
    Thanks for any help...

    And can I use linux's textboxes, labels, chackboxes etc. in java?Well, I guess they're GTK's widgets you are talking about, not Linux's ...;) But, yes, according to these people: http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/ "Since 1998, the java-gnome project has been offering Java bindings for the GTK widget toolkit and for the rich family of libraries making up the GNOME desktop."
    Meanwhile the little white angel figure waggles its finger and cautions:
    -- I've never used this software
    -- If you're new to Java, consider that it has a big API: that means lots of widgets and things to learn. If you add to this the task of learning to communicate between this language and another, this is looking like a lot of work. At least learn the language first!
    -- Using JNI (ie communicating at a low level with the OS) which this approach involves, may be a case of banging like h3ll on a square peg to force it into a round hole. At a minimum you lose OS independency (the freedom for your software to run on any* OS).
    But who listens to the little white angel figure? Good luck!
    * where any==possessing a jre; but note how I've dragged freedom into it!

  • How to use java programe in oracle form

    Hello Expert,
    My Config is : -
    Forms [32 Bit] Version 11.1.1.3.0 (Production)
    Jdeveloper - 10.1.3
    I want to use the java programe in form builder. I create the one java class in Jdeveloper -
    package demo;
    import java.net.InetAddress;
    import java.net.NetworkInterface;
    import java.net.SocketException;
    import java.net.UnknownHostException;
    public class get_info{
       public static void main(String[] args){
       ch_add();
       public static void ch_add()
      InetAddress ip;
      try { 
      ip = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
      /*System.out.println("Current IP address : " + ip.getHostAddress());  */
      NetworkInterface network = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(ip);
      byte[] mac = network.getHardwareAddress();
      /*System.out.print("Current MAC address : ");   */
      StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();            
      for (int i = 0; i < mac.length; i++)
      sb.append(String.format("%02X%s", mac[i], (i < mac.length - 1) ? "-" : ""));
      System.out.println(sb.toString()); 
      } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
      } catch (SocketException e){
      e.printStackTrace();
    and this into Formweb.cfg and default.env and also add into Form_class_path. After that i import this java into forms.

  • How to include JAVA work in a maintenance cycle

    Good Day;
    Would anyone know where I can find documentation on how to include JAVA changes in a Solution Manager / ChaRM maintenance cycle?
    I understand that a transport can be created for JAVA work.
    Thanks All
    Regards
    Don Newton

    You will first need CTS+ configured to create the java transport.  Check this out for portal..
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90d3b550-b6fb-2910-0fa5-ece5d61fb9c3
    Once that is configured and assuming you have Charm configured, I believe it's as easy as adding the system to your project.

    It's like u r asking someone to do ur homework.
    1. sample example you have mentioned can't work on JCOP
    2. yep, you'll have to learn how to work with JCShell if u want to use jcop tools.

  • How to run java program from website?

    Hello
    I'd like to know how to run java program from my web page.
    I'd like to push some button in this web page so java program that would be on my server
    would pop-up. Can it be done automaticaly upon running this web site? (without any buttons - I just enter website and program pops up).
    Cheers

    I rather thought about RMI. But I could try servlets. So how it would look like?.
    I would make http request in browser (enter address) and program would show up in its window?. And I would not have to change anything in my program?. This program would run then on both boxes?. One remotely and one not?.
    But I would have to learn some basics, I've never worked with servlets. Could you suggest some good sites about it?. With ready examples so I could tweak them to my purpose.

  • How to use Java as a Front-end app

    how java application can be used as the Front-end interfaces to Forte based
    applications???
    To unsubscribe, email '[email protected]' with
    'unsubscribe forte-users' as the body of the message.
    Searchable thread archive <URL:http://pinehurst.sageit.com/listarchive/>

    Rajiv,
    If you have Forte's WebEnterprise product, and Forte version 3.0.G.x or
    later, you have the ability to export an IIOP interface for any Forte
    service object. In fact, you can go one step further and generate a Java
    interface that "hides" the IIOP issues from the developer. The way you do
    this is to do the following:
    1) From the partitioning workshop, double click on the service object you
    wish to expose as an IIOP interface. This will bring up the Service Object
    Properties dialog.
    2) Off the Export tab, set the External Type drop down to IIOP. If IIOP is
    not an available option in the drop down list then you do not have
    WebEnterprise install.
    3) From here you need to set up the necessary IIOP configuration parameters
    (see the documentation for details on the specifics of what the parameters
    control).
    4) If you want to have Forte generate a JavaBean interface and the necessary
    Java classes to be called by your application then make sure you select the
    Java parameter at the bottom of the Configuration dialog. If IDL is
    selected then Forte will generate a generic IDL interface.
    5) When you make your distribution Forte will generate the Java classes for
    you.
    This mechanism works very well for accessing a Forte service object from a
    Java application.
    Good Luck!
