By: Terry Olmort



Installing Java applications in your computer unit is one of the first things you should learn about when setting up and getting started on learning Java programming language. This step is also important and essential for every Java programmer.

To install Java applications into your computer unit, there is a need for you to download the Java Developer Kit or the JDK before setting up whatever development environment you are planning to use. You also need to download the bundled NetBeans IDe with the Java Developer Kit. Before you download the Java Developer Kit, you need to identify what is the operating system of your computer unit as there is a designated kind of Java Developer Kit that is intended for every operating system. There is a Java Developer Kit that is intended for the users of Mac, Solaris, Linux and Windows. Once you have downloaded the Java Developer Kit, you need to read some installation notes before proceeding to install Java applications.

As soon as you have installed the Java Developer Kit into your computer unit, make sure that the set-up is complete. You may also set the class path as the environment variable. This is the reason why you need to see the installation notes for the directions intended for you operating system. In developing web applications, you need to use Sun Java Studio Enterprise, Sun Java Studio Creator IDE or NetBeans IDE that you can integrate to the Java Developer Kit. This is because that the environments can provide web servers that are necessary in the creation and testing of the database connections, JavaServer pages and the servlets. If you are not sure of what IDE that would best suit the developmental needs of your program, it is recommended that you should learn the basics and fundamentals of the Integrated Development Environment or the IDE.

Once the Java Developer Kit are already installed in to your computer unit along with the NetBeans IDE then you can begin you programming tasks. You may also use a simple text editor in programming thereinafter you can run and compile from the command line. However, there are many text editors that now come with the functions of compiling and running the Java files from the command line. With this, you need to tell the program where the Java executable file is residing within the memory of your computer. If you are not sure where the Java executable files are located or residing, you may use the Windows Search Command.
