How Do You Install Java JDK On Ubuntu?
Sun Microsystem’s Java Development Kit (JDK) is designed for programmers who wish to develop Java-based software applications. It includes the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and other programming tools, including Java, the Java archiver (jar), the javadoc document developer, the appletviewer, and many others. Although it is a software development kit, it is not the same as Java SDK, which means “server development kit.” It can be installed on Ubuntu with the Synaptics package manager. Open the Synaptics Package Manager. It will be found under “System ‘ Administration.” Type “java” into the search field. Scroll down the list until you find the entry “sun-javaX-jdk.” The “X” will be a number reflecting the latest JDK release. Click on the check box beside the entry and choose “mark for installation.” Click on “Apply” in the toolbar.
