developing java Web Start apps on Linux

[onetitfemme]

I need to develope java Web Start apps on Linux using the jdk 1.4.2
..
the thing is that I can't find javaws to go say, javaws SwingSet2.jar
..
What is it I am missing here?
..
sh-3.00# java -version
java version "1.4.2_12"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_12-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_12-b03, mixed mode)
..
sh-3.00# javaws

sh: javaws: command not found
sh-3.00# cd /mnt/hda3/opt/java/jdk.1.4.2.12/demo/jfc/SwingSet2

That the javaws binary in Java 1.4 is in a different directory than the
java vm. Read the 1.4 web start documentation.

But, you should really configure your browser to call that executable
for items of the mime-type "application/x-java-jnlp-file" too make life
easier.

Out of curiosity, are you building with ant, or maven?
