    [/tab]The Java Development Kit aka JDK is a collection of library files & a java compiler that help you write your own java code and compile it to a portable format. Many different opensource softwares use these library files to perform various function - I guess this cocoon framework you're talking about also utilizes this.

[tab]But you needn't worry even if you've no knowledge of Java. All you need to do is download this JDK and install. You can get it here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp - there are three downloads on this page, out of which you should select either of the first two. The first one contains a bonus Development Environment called NetBeans with which you can edit/compile your java code. For you I think the second package would be more suitable.. It's a windows based installer - so simply download and install. You needn't do anything more. As long as the installation goes properly, you cocoon framework will locate the java installation all by itself and get working...

All the best smile.gif

P.S. The page I've pointed you to contains download links for Java 2 Development Kit version 1.5 and not JDK1.4 - but that shouldn't be a problem for you. These classes are backward compatible and won't present any problem for you.

Java Development Kit or JDK is the compiler, runtime and related files required to compile and run Java programs.

You can download it from Sun's website

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html

Download J2SE v 1.4.2_08 SDK. Later version 1.5 is also available but this should suffice.

Read the installation instructions available along with the download on the same page.
It is an installation file, just execute it and install it. The directory that you install would be called the Java Home.

Post back in case of any queries.

Cheers.

First of all thanks for your quickly answers guys!
I have tried to install JDK in my computer but i have some doubts. I am using linux and what you download is a .bin file. I suppose i have to burn an CD with this image but i need also a .cue file. Right?. I read in internet that i can create an cue file easily in the next way:
Create a file with extension cue with the next content:
FILE bin_file_name BINARY
TRACK 1 MODE1/2352
INDEX 1 00:00:00

I tried that i burn the file but not success. :-)
Any helpful idea?

What version of Linux do you have - it seems as if Linux 7.1 is most optimal for use with j2se 1.4.2 - there are a number of (minor) bugs which may occur when running j2se with earlier versions of Linux, so if you could upgrade to this version this may help. Again, the download for j2se1.4.2 is at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html

Although you do download a .bin file, this should be able to be extracted and installed without any additional files; there are some pretty good instructions on this page for installing and configuring the j2se1.4 (.bin file) on Linux:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/install-linux.html

I hope this helps.
