CS 115 - FALL 2010

OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING I

DOWNLOADS - SEC. 1 & 3

ECLIPSE: 

·         Go to http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

·         Download the Eclipse Classic or IDE for Java Developers option for your operating system.

·         Once you have downloaded the zipped file, you will need to have WinZip (downloadable, free from internet!) to unzip the files.  If you have Winzip on your computer then you can just click on the zipped downloaded file.  It will create a directory “/eclipse” on your computer and copy the files into the directory.

·         The default working directory is under the /eclipse directory.  If you send the eclipse program to your desktop you can easily specify another working directory (Properties -> Target -> add "-data c:/users")

JAVA RUN-TIME ENVIRONMENT:

·         Go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

·         Download the Java SE Development Kit.

·         This will download an executable zip file to your computer. 

·         You can then click on the zip file on your computer and install java.  A directory “j2sdk1.6xx” will be created on your computer and the files will be copied to this directory.

YOU ARE NOW READY TO RUN ECLIPSE WITH JAVA!!! YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO CLICK ON THE ECLIPSE PROGRAM ICON (/eclipse) AND HAVE IT OPERATE AS IT DID DURING CLASS.

HAPPY PROGRAMMING!!!
