Java Comrade: Java is an interpreted language. To run a Java program you need a Java interpreter. Linux has one or more. You can use Netscape or the Kaffe interpreter. Try ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu. or the primary site is ftp://ftp.sarc.city.ac.uk/pub/kaffe
---------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 09, 1997 7:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Executing java applications I'm running Debian-Linux 1.2.6 with Java support, to be able to run Java applications (not applets). My little test program Welcome.java is supposed to write a short message to the screen; it compiles successfully with guavac (it says so), resulting in Welcome.class. But then what? First, Welcome.class isn't executable. After fixing that, an error message complains that it can't find /usr/bin/java -- and sure enough, it isn't there, and neither is /usr/bin/guava. Am I missing something? Is Debian-Linux missing something? Must we only run applets (e.g. under Netscape)? Would appreciate some help on this. -- Henk Koster Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Satisfied user of Linux, OS/2, LaTeX & Lucida Bright, and Psion Siena "Behavioral axiomas are rational, investors aren't always..."
