How install JDK (Java Developement Kit) in Fedora

[Mascara Negra]

Hi everyone,

i'm trying to install JDK in my Fedora 12, but nothing really works for me until now.
I'm new on Linux World, so if can help me, i would be very appreciated.

Best regards,
Valter Henrique.

Hello Valter,

I'm not sure which JDK you are trying to install. I am new to Fedora, so I never used Fedora 12. FC13 ships with OpenJDK, which is not to my liking. If you want to try it:

yum search java

Identify the correct packages.

yum install <LIST OF PACKAGES>

If you are specifically looking for Sun's Java, please see this site:

Have fun!

Is there a simplified version of the installation instruction? the city-fan seems extremely complex for newcomer. Thanks.
