JDK
The Java Developers Toolkit, version 1.0.2 has been installed
for hosts running OSF1 3.1, HPUX 10.0, IRIX 5.3, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, and
Solaris 2.X. The JDK will be installed in /exp/rcf/share/X11R5/java.
The version for OSF1 and HPUX are from OSF, the Solaris version is
from Sun. The existing version of the JDK will be renamed to
/exp/rcf/share/X11R5/java-1.0.1.
JDK 1.0.1 for solaris, Alpha and HP
The Java Developers Toolkit, version 1.0.1, for Solaris will be installed
on the exp tree tomorrow. The JDK will be installed in:
/exp/rcf/share/X11R5/java
The Java Developers Kit port to OSF/1 3.2 and HP-UX 10.01 by OSF
is installed in /exp/rcf/share/X11R5/java for Alphas and HPs.
Please see the READMEs in /exp/rcf/share/X11R5/java for more information
on the JDK.
What is JDK?
The Java Developers Kit (JDK) lets you write applets that conform to
the 1.0 Java applet API.
The Java Execution and Development Environments form a complete
toolkit for running and developing Java applications and applets,
including a Java runtime system, compiler, debugger, and related
tools. They are based on Version 1.0.2 of Sun's JDK.
The JDK helps you to:
- Develop applets that conform to the final applet API
- Create applets that run in all Java-enabled browsers
- Develop Java applications
- Experiment with the debugger API (and a prototype command-line debugger)
In order to run JDK on alphas running OSF/1 3.X you need to set the
variable SYSNAME to alpha_osf32
-
for tcsh, csh users:
setenv SYSNAME alpha_osf32c
-
for ksh, bash users:
export SYSNAME=alpha_osf32c
In order to run JDK on HPs running HPUX 10.01 you need to set the
variable SYSNAME to hp700_ux100
-
for tcsh, csh users:
setenv SYSNAME hp700_ux100
-
for ksh, bash users:
export SYSNAME=hp700_ux100
The SYSNAME variable does not need to be set in order to run java under
Solaris.
