Install JDK 5 update 12 di Ubuntu 7.04

Selain menginstall JDK dari repository dapat juga dilakukan secara manual, pertamakali download jdk-1_5_0_12-linux-i586.bin dari website SUN. Extract binary file kedalam Home Folder (/home/dsnugraha). Klik Applications->Accessories->Terminal lalu ketikkan

cd /home/dsnugraha

sudo mv jdk1.5.0_12 /usr/lib

sudo update-alternatives –install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jdk1.5.0_12/bin/java 300

sudo update-alternatives –config java

didalam komputer saya muncul tulisan seperti ini:

There are 4 alternatives which provide `java’.

Selection Alternative
———————————————–
1 /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
* 2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
+ 3 /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java
4 /usr/lib/jdk1.5.0_12/bin/java

Press enter to keep the default[*], or type selection number: 4

Using `/usr/lib/jdk1.5.0_12/bin/java’ to provide `java’.

Saya pilih angka 4 yaitu JDK yang baru saya install, lakukan pengecekan dengan perintah:

java -version

hasilnya:

java version “1.5.0_12″
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_12-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_12-b04, mixed mode, sharing)

Selamat mencoba!
