If you're going to compile java code and you don't want to go all the way and install some kind of IDE, then you should really really really look into using Ant. In fact, some linux distros already come with a version of ant installed (but since your distro shipped without a JDK i guess that's doubtful in your case).
One of the key benefits is that your classpath settings are effectively documented in your ant build file, which is a real time saver if you come back to your code six months later, or if you need to get the code compiling on some one else's machine. I read your blog entry and it would be easy to setup a build file to compile and jar your code. /t >-----Original Message----- >Subject: OT: Compiling java source code >From: Rick Root <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2006 23:16:51 -0500 >Thread: >http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm/method=messages >&threadid=44685&forumid=4#232676 > >I finally got everything compiled and working.
