Hi all.

I need to start java developers kit on my mac os x 10.6.
As i can read on different forums you download the program from the software update, for mac users. But how do i launch the program??

Thanks on advance.

I'm confused by your question. Are you talking about a Java IDE? I've never used one that Apple provides, I would assume that it comes as part of the developer tools, but I can't find it so maybe that's not what you're talking about. If you're trying to run a java program you have written navigate to it's folder in terminal and type

java program.java

replace program.java with the name of your program.

If you're looking for an IDE I highly recommend Eclipse. There are probably better more Mac like Java IDEs but the one I'm comfortable with is Eclipse.

Actually if any Java programmer around here knows of a great OS X-ified Java IDE I would love to hear about it.
