Hi,

I don't recommend manually putting files under /usr/lib, but you can find the location of the default java with something quick and dirty like:
Or using update alternatives:

Dear sir,

gives output like
how can use this path to go to the location in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/
how to catch the output of the above command while using it in shell script like

Hi,

this is marked as solved now, and I wonder what your solution was. Did you learn how to set variables in a shell script?

Regardless I don't know why you are trying to manually dump that file in that particular location. If you want to install the java imaging api you should probably be using your package manager.

Eg
Evo2.

Dear sir

thanks for rply i find out how we can use that PATH getting from the readlink -f $(which java)
and used that path in my script and done with the thing
Actually i want it because as i told u i want to give this thing to the another users which may no have net or they should not have to do this apt-get bcz this has to be a part of my application which uses jai as library

thanks again really thanks
i not that gud at explaining then also u helped thnks

Hii,

Ok, then you can bundle the jai .deb file and have your script install it using "dpkg -i". Anything is better than just dumping the .bin file in is /usr/lib/.

and another one is i have two files
1) sun-jai_codec.jar
2) sun-jai_core.jar
how can i bundle it as .deb

Hi,

don't use the .jar or .bin files, instead download and use the .deb file from the Ubuntu repository.
See for example http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libjai

Evo2.

Dear sir

Your perfectly right in approach but its size is around 5MB for each file libjai-core-java i have to give it with my package so i think it will be better to use this jai-1_1_3-lib-linux-i586-jdk.bin which includes all the functionality of two files sun-java_core.jar and sun-java_codec.jar and its size is also lesser around 3.5MB

Thanking you

Hi,

did you check licence in regards to redistributing Sun/Oracle Java? I checked the FAQ https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/distribution.xml and it seems you are supposed to abide by the "Oracle Binary Code License" http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/ja...nse/index.html if redistributing their software.

Oracle is a pretty scary company.

Anyway, good luck.

Thanks for info.

but i am not using it as commercial thing not going to distribute also as commercial app or anything :)
