Re: compile java, but not run?


Hi Scott - I run java on Cygwin all the time, no problems.

In addition to the checkes suggested previously, you might try downloading and re-installing JDK 1.4.1 from Sun.  Mine is sitting on C:/j2sdk1.4.1, rather in Program Files (that shouldn't make a difference, but you might have something else weird in your environment that this could overwrite).  If I open a cygwin window, I can type:

>
> which java
/cygdrive/c/j2sdk1.4.1/bin/java
>
> java -version
java version "1.4.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-b21)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-b21, mixed mode)

Good luck,
Alan Thompson
