Installing Java RE, and Java SDK

    Hi, I would like to install the most recent JDK onto a Win2000 system, whilst also using the most up to date Java Runtime Environment. Problem is, that from what I can figure through searches - is that JDK installs JRE. BUT, the latest JDK (that I can find on sun) is only version 1.1.8 and sun.com says it's End Of Life. The latest version of Java RE is 1.4.1.

    Thus the question is...

    Is there a JDK with the most recent JRE available, and where is it on java.sun.com...
    ...Or, if there isn't - would there be any problems if I installed JRE 1.4.1 after I installed JDK 1.1.8?

    All help, tips etc appreciated.

    To throw a spanner into the works, I intend to install JBuilder (Borland). Does that install a JRE and/or a JDK.

    In what order should I install everything?

    It is what it's.

    Download the SDK if you want everything including the sources.

    Depends on the download I guess.

    Try this instead. Better IDE IMHO.

    ;) Thanks Hobbes, turns out they renamed the JDK to SDK - thats where I got stumped :roilleyes:

    OK, turns out we're gonna be using Oracle JDeveloper 9i instead of JBuilder. Should I install that before the Java SDK or after, or does that make much of a difference (ie does JDev install its own Java RE and SDK, or does JDev need those to already exist on the system)

    Thanks in advance

    I personally know nothing of Oracle JDeveloper, but as regards the questions you asked, I suggest you RTFM, its probably the fastest way to find out what you need to know.

    Apparently JDev 9i doesnt work well with Jre 1.4. Look at this forum for more details: http://www.oracle.com/forums/message.jsp?id=1157302

    You may need to look at other environments if you want to use jre1.4

    BTW the previous version of JDev doesnt work with 1.4 either
