Ricardo's Home Page Install tips

Here you can find some tips on how to install all the software you need in order to follow the examples I'm presenting in this page. These are not the only choices you have. They are the choices I made for myself. You may choose other excelent products like JRun, Tomkat, etc... The only problem is I don't know them well enough to give you any help. If you are starting now, this is one of the best choices you can find, anyway. Java Development Kit (JDK) You need it if: You want to compile any example of Java Application, Java Applet or Java Servlet in this page. You don't need it if: All you want is to do is some Javascript or HTML. Apache Server You need it if: You want to have a superb web server for free :-). You want to use the JServ to run servlets. You want to share your work with others. You don't need it if: You don't want to share your work with other people because you are too selfish (shame on you ;-). You want to see your HTML, JavaScript or Applet by opening the files directly from your browser. You have another web server that supports all your needs. Java Servlet Development Kit (JSDK) You need it if: You want to install JServ. You want to compile any servlet in the examples of this page. You don't need it if: You already have it ;-). You don't care about servlets or JServ. You have other environment installed and running (like JRun or JWSDK). Before you start: Install the JDK. Apache JServ You need it if: You want to run the servlet examples in this page. You don't need it if: You don't care about servlets. You have other environment installed and running (like JRun or Tomkat). Before you start: Install Apache Server. Install the JDK. Install the JSDK.
