Hi,

Thank you very much. Meanwhile, I myself have simply downloaded the
Linux rpm from the Sun site. I downloaded the file
j2sdk-1_4_2_07-linux-i586-rpm.bin
Set the permission to executable (as root), ran it, and the added the
resulting rpm by doing a "rpm -i j2sdk-1_4_2_07-linux-i586-rpm".
Alright, so far, so good, but....
I think my CLASSPATH settings are not quite hunky-dorey, as I keep
getting Exceptions like the following:
********************************************************************
Exception in thread "main" com.thales_rts.splice.ClassError: Class
java.lang.String does not contain any fields which can be accessed.
Accessable fields must be defined public and non-static.
at
com.thales_rts.splice.TypeDescriptor.getAccessableFields(java.lang.Class)
(Unknown Source)
********************************************************************
My classpath is set in /etc/profile to be:
/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_07/lib/dt.jar:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_07/lib/tools.jar:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_07/jre/lib/rt.jar
At a later stage, this is extended with the .jars for the actual
applications...
Can anyone tell me whether the above CLASSPATH setting ought to be
correct, or whether I'm missing something...?
Cheers!

PS: Sorry for such basic questions, but I have to get this machine set
up by tomorrow, and my Java knowledge is rather rusty (as I pretty much
haven't used it for some 5 years or so)...
