either add /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/bin/ to your PATH, or simply make soft-links (or hard links, at your preference):
ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/bin/java /usr/local/bin/java HOWEVER, I believe (from my minimal Java experience) that the Java utilities will look for CLASS_PATHs and other java "Stuff" relative to location of java binaries. Executing via link from another location (like /usr/local/bin) may cause issues. But again, my Java experience is minimal, and I may be waaay off. Perhaps someone on this list can clarify? -Matt On Wed, 2002-10-02 at 13:29, MET wrote: > Is there any way that I could make java and javac global commands like > other programs?
