RE: IBM i and Java Support - Steve Will

I get that there is no windows installation script for this so you have to
set the path to the jre.

When I do that is does not find the java command as a valid command.

If I CD into the .bin directory where the java.exe lives and run "java
-version" it just hangs.

Any thoughts on that

That's the JRE.  You'll find java.exe & javaw.exe in the bin directory.

You won't find javac.exe or any of the other tools required to develop java.

I'm riding 615 miles (Yes, you read that right) in the American Diabetes
Association's Tour de Cure to raise money for diabetes research, education,
advocacy, and awareness.  You can make a tax-deductible donation to my ride
by visiting https://lsteml.diabetessucks.net.

See where I get my donations from ... visit
https://lsteml.diabetessucks.net/map for an interactive map (it's a geeky
thing).

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
