I know java compiler doesn't came with suse 10. I had download SDK 1.4.2 and JRE and i had installed both.... The problem is that i still can't compile with java....i have this problem:

crapodino@linux:~> java
bash: java: command not found
crapodino@linux:~> javac
bash: javac: command not found


If i go to Yast and i search "java" or SDK i can see that there are both of them...but they are as with a ...as if it can't be changed

Does any one nkews what can i do ?? please i really need to compile with java and i don't know what to do...

If also tried downloading java with YaST as it says in SuSE web but i have a error, because of this y download them from sun web

thanks

when u downloaded/installed java stuff did you follow instructions to setup your PATH/java/java_home environment variables?

have you tried gcj? this should come with gcc

where is the java installed?
try
locate java

what you have is a variable called PATH like in DOS.
if the java does not exist on the PATH then it won't be found.

if you echo $PATH you'll see what it is.
try $JAVA_HOME too.



so you'll need to add $JAVA_HOME/bin to PATH.
this is best done in /etc/profile probably.

as you said i add export $PATH ..... at the end of the file .bashrc and it works fine.....

thanks

cool.

This is probably going to sound stupid, apologies if so, but why waste time downloading java compilers, when as well as gcj, SuSE 10 comes with the java sun jdk 1.4 and 1.5
