Hello all,
I am very keen to start learning a new programming language and have
chosen Java as it is more productive than the previous language i have
learnt.
I have chosen a book to start learning from but the CD Rom is missing
which contains the necessary tools and libraries etc to install for me
to begin.
I have already installed the following from the main java website:
Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard Edition
Runtime Environment
Version 5.0
I have installed this program and then tried to compile a program in
Command Prompt after saving a file as myProgram.java.
I used the following line to start....
vi myProgram.java
I found this didnt do a thing.
The question i am asking is, do i have all the necessary tools to start
and how do i actually compile a program.
Thanks for the time taken in reading this article.
