How do you go about "installing" jars? I'll configure an IDE, netbeans,
to use the jar as a library.


Would I just navigate to:

https://rome.dev.java.net/

and download rome-1.0RC2.jar


to /usr/share/java ? Seems a bit fragile to set all that up manually.




thanks,

Thufir

If you set up netbeans to use them then it doesn't matter where they
are. If you want to be able to use them when you launch a program from
the command line then you just need to add a their location to the
classpath. I am not sure where it is by default. You should be able to
get it with something like:

System.out.println(System.getEnv("classpath"));

Try it and see what comes up.

To be or not to be, that is the question
2b || !2b
(0b10)*(0b1100010) || !(0b10)*(0b1100010)
0b11000100 || !0b11000100
0b11000100 || 0b00111011
0b11111111
255, that is the answer.

Not really, since they're self-contained. Using apt to install jars seems
like overkill.

Still, most jars are available as lib*-java from the Ubuntu repos. I try
there first, and if I can't find what I want, I just drop the appropriate
jar into /usr/share/java (otoh, I'm getting away from using java anyway).

Ok, thanks. I've just manually installed them for now and will probably
leave it as is.

I may look at the classpath later.
