The Answers:
1. How do I setup the JDK for Sun?
----------------------------------
a) add to you java directory a home directory (cd java; md home)
(you don't need to call it home!)
b) in your AUTOEXEC.BAT
a) add java\bin to your path. (PATH=...;C:\java\bin;)
b) add SET HOMEDRIVE=C:
c) add SET HOMEPATH=\(where ever your .hotjava directory is) (HOMEPATH=\java)
d) add SET CLASSPATH=.;C:\java\lib\classes.zip;C:\(wherever you want to store
your classes);
c) reboot (so changes take effect)
d) goto the C:\JAVA\DEMO\Animator
e) at the command line type: appletviewer example1.html
A copyright window will come up - select the Accept button (but read
the document first!)
You should have a little window with a little guy waving at you!)
The little guy is Duke and he's not a tooth!
2. I don't have any buttons on the copyright notice?
----------------------------------------------------
Yes you do! If you can't see them ... then they are hiding behind the
task bar - move the window up.
3. How do I get rid of the appletviewer copyright notice screen?
----------------------------------------------------------------
Go to the DOS prompt (a DOS Window not booting into DOS mode).
Change to the java\home directory.
Type "md .hotjava"
The next time you run the appletviewer you'll have to "accept" but
after that it'll be gone.
4. I've got a .zip file that I got from Sun ... but pkzip won't handle the
long filenames ... what can I do?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
i) Your "unzipper" might not support Long File Names to www.winzip.com
and get the 32-bit version of Winzip.
ii) You might not have Lonmg File Name support turned on.
Go to the Control Panel (under the "Start" menu).
Select System | Performance | File System | Troubleshooting.
Make sure the "Disable Long Filename..." is not checked.
5. Whenever I try to use the appletviewer it just sits there... or
it askes me to dial out to the internet - how do I stop this?
------------------------------------------------------------------
according to Rich Fritzson (sorry lost the e-mail address)
"First disable DNS in your TCP configuration: Select Control Panel,
Select Network, Select TCP/IP, Select DNS tab and disable DNS.
Then reenable DNS by selecting the properties window of your dial-up
networking icon, selecting TCP/IP properties and enabling DNS there."
6. When I try to compile something javac tells me that "class x must
be defined in a file called X.java" - how do I compile it?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
javac is Case Sensitive.
If you have a class like:
public class X { /*...*/ }
to compile it you must execute javac like:
javac X.java // javac x.java would look for a class called 'x'!
