Well, I wanted to do development with jdk 1.3 -- so I downloaded Sun's JDK 1.3, unpacked it to my home directory, and put symlinks to java, javac, and appletviewer into my ~/bin/ directory -- which happens to be in my path. Everything I do works fine. You might prefer installing it to /usr/local/j2sdk/jdk1.3 rather than your home directory. I imagine gnujsp and tomcat have a config file that tells them which java executable they want to run, and perhaps they need a CLASSPATH environment variable set to include whatever class/jars they supply. -- ``Oh Lord; Ooh you are so big; So absolutely huge; Gosh we're all really impressed down here, I can tell you.''
