Re: [fedora-java] Replacing FC4 Free Java for SUN's Java
I've got the Sun JDK at /usr/local/jdk in addition to all the default
RPMs from FC4.
I have found that setting the environment as follows:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk
export PATH=/usr/local/jdk/bin:$PATH
makes Eclipse and most other Java apps I use run ok.

Hello All,
FC4 is interesting because it comes with java and all pre installed.
However I need to replace all of that and have SUN's instead.
Until FC3 I did everything myself manually by:
1 - Installing JDK under /opt/ and creating an /opt/java/ link
2 - creating links under /usr/bin/ for java and javac
3 - changing /etc/profile to include /opt/java/ on the path and create a
classpath
All Java stuff I've put under /opt/
That way I had total control.
Now, FC4 has java stuff all over and config stuff all over.
Rather than learning what it is (although I had not found documentation
that explains all the details) I prefer to remove everything and do it
the good old manual way.
I've also tried jpackage but I did not like it. Again, no control and
non-free is not as easy to install.
Any good docs or comments on this?
Anyone suffering from the same aggravations?
Thanks,
C.F.
