Howdy, I'll be giving a presentation (draft: http://www.eatel.net/~john/javalinux/) on using Linux to develop Java software for the Nov. 6 meeting. This has special relevance to BRLUG because of the potential near-future job market for Java developers with the appearance of the BR data center. There have been a number of recent events concerning Java on the GNU/Linux OS. Sun has recently released J2SE and J2EE SDKs for RedHat 6.0 & 6.1. I'm using the SDKs on RedHat 6.2 successfully. IBM has released a Java Linux Development Kit CD for the cost of shipping & handling that has has their Java SDK on it and other tools and demo code. See http://www.ibm.com/developer/linux/ for info. Because Linux can operate as an enterprise level server with the addition of other open source software (CORBA ORBs, SQL RDBMS, etc.), it is very cheap (*free*) to teach yourself the basics of developing Java for enterprise level businesses. This will be the basis of my presentation. Thought ya'll also might want to know that the next issue of Java Developer's Journal will focus on Linux and Java. If I get my copy of this issue before the meeting, I'll be sure to bring it.

Java Developer's Journal focuses on LINUX and JAVA - it's a collector's issue you'll keep in your technical library for a long time! <p>DON'T MISS... * Sean Rhody's "From the Editor" column in which he explains "Why Linux is Important." * the "Guest Editorial" by Alan Williamson on "The Power of Open Source." * "Java on Linux" feature story by Calvin Austin. * How has the relationship between Sun and Blackdown evolved? What are Blackdown's current Java projects? Plus the latest info on Blackdown ports of Java to Linux on non-Intel architectures. * "Java and Linux" by Ben Okopnik. How can a Java programmer who wants to get into Linux, get Linux and a Java programming environment up and running? Learn the commands and utilities that you'd be likely to use as a programmer, along with suggestions for the initial Linux configuration. * "Java and mySQL" by Mark Matthews. A top Java developer shares his insights on connecting Java code to mySQL. * "Apache & JServ" by Alan Williamson. This is the most common combination for Java Servlets to run under Linux. Find out how to set up this environment and how it stacks up against the Oracle/Netscape/Sun solutions. * "Linux: The Perfect Java Development Environment" by Micah Silverman. A repeat author and cofounder of the Applied Technology Group describes a high-quality, responsive, secure, and highly available development environment that uses inexpensive yet powerful hardware and a host of free or inexpensive and readily available software, not the least of which is Linux. This has allowed the development and testing of Java, reliably, on multiple platforms using multiple server environments. <... ad crap snipped ...> *** SUBSCRIBE TO JDJ's PRINT EDITION TODAY AND DON'T MISS THIS *** COLLECTOR'S "LINUX & JAVA" ISSUE! *** https://www.icnfull.com/syscon/javadevlpr.htm *** JAVADEVELOPERSJOURNAL.COM LIST PRIVACY NOTICE: *** http://www.sys-con.com/java/newjava.cfm <... legal crap snipped ...> John Hebert System Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Changing your state of mind through sound. ___________________________________________________________________________ Visit http://www.visto.com/info, your free web-based communications center.
