Hi Everyone,
I love Java as well as programming. I am very new to Java. I have a serious problem installing the programme as well as making it work with Textpad or Notepad on My Microsoft Windows PC at home.
At first, I downloaded the Java SE Development Kit 6 (also known as JDK™ 6). Then I install it. And downloaded the TextPad programme, which I installed too. But when I compile my my java code such as:
public class helpMe
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Hello World, here comes someone with a problem installing Java");
}
}
But I saved it as helpMe.java and tried to run it on Textpad but nothing happens.
I have also tried the tutorial on the page below, but nothing is working.
"Hello World!" for Microsoft Windows (The Java™ Tutorials > Getting Started > The "Hello World!" Application)
I get the message below when I try NotePad and run the command prompt
'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file'
Then I follow the link below to do what they say, and still nothing works.
Lesson: Common Problems (and Their Solutions) (The Java™ Tutorials > Getting Started)
Does anyone have better suggestions for me on what to do to make java work for me on my PC please?
I will really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Menre
