I can't run javac
 

I installed Red Hat recently but it won't let me use javac
when I try to compile the programs it tells me that javac is not found.
what can I do to run my programs?

Hi!

I also assume that you are using J2SDK ratter then JRE, since JRE does not come with javac, only the runtime environment. To run your programs the syntax is java <classname> without the extension (.class) and to compile it's javac classname.java

Check Sun's documentation and tutorials related to Java if you are totally new to this ;)

Good luck!

Mate, issue this command (I assume you didn't forget to install JRE itself)

ls -s /usr/bin path_to_javac

If the javac is on hd, the trick is to link it to a location in what all files are globally accessible. In simple terms /usr/bin is a dir where you should links yer apps to.
