Just about to give up...
Ok. I know I posted this same problem a while ago. And I've consorted to RTFM (really I have!); but still, I can not get this Java programming thing on Linux underway. I've successfully downloaded and installed JEdit (which is a pretty nifty editor)....but what good it code if it cant be compiled?!?!?
So basically, when I type javac Hello.java in the bash shell I get the tried and true command not found.
Ok, so I realize that javac is not in my path. The problem is, it that although I know how to put it there...I can't find javac anywhere on my machine to begine with! I thought it might be in /usr/share or maybe even /etc/java/ but no. I also tried looking for "javac" or even "j2sdk" by using the find feature of Konqueror...but still nothing. According to Yast2 it is installed (version 1.4.1-23) but Yast2 doesn't tell me where.
I'm using Suse 8.2 Professional by the way.
