Java Compilers
Hi guys. I picked up my Java book the other day, blew off the dust and remember that I need to get a compiler. The first place I went was to Sun of course. Oncie I had it installed(not even working I might add)I found it very complicating for some reason, so I started thinking that there must be a easier one to use. Anyway, that is why I'm here. You guys almost always have a link for some great site/program that can be of use. Of course freeware and thanks in advance.

Actually, I don't think sun's is that complex... Just install the SDK and the make sure to do the environment varibles thing... Which OS's are you running? Because I have first hand experiance setting this up on both Windows 2000 and XP. To answer your question though, no I don't know of any better compilers.

Hello. I'm running windows 98SE. Maybe your right about it not being hard to set up so maybe I'll try it again. Any help would be welcomed. Thanks

I have installed SDK on Win98, 2K, and XP and have not had any problems. Exactly what difficulties are you having?

To be honest, I think it might have been the way they talked you through the setup process. Or maybe it was the fact I know nothing about DOS and they taked about it in there, and I just made it worse then it is. I have no idea. I think later today I will try to install it again.

You have to give the program your SDK path, currently you don't need the rest of the options.
