This document describes the setup for the Java Programming, Part 2 Workshop for JDeveloper 10.1.3.1 Workshop.
Important: Please print this document and as you install the software, mark up the document with the actual directory paths where you installed the software. Then leave a copy of the marked-up document for the instructor.
With the exception of the operating system, all of the required software is available at no charge for download (some packages will require you to register on a website).
If you have questions or difficulties with the installation, you can contact Joel Barnum at 319-362-3906 or email at .
Instructor machine hardware is the same as students, plus any additional requirements listed below.
Instructor machine software is the same as students, plus any additional requirements listed below.
Create a folder in the root directory of drive C: named java. You will install the required software into this directory.
Download JDeveloper Studio 10.1.3.1 for Windows from:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/jdev/htdocs/soft10131.html
Accept the license agreement, then download jdevstudio10131.zip.
Note: If you don't already have a free Oracle Developer Network account, you will need to create one.
Unzip jdevstudio10131.zip to the c:\java\jdeveloper directory, creating the "jdeveloper" subdirectory.
Download the Student Exercise Archive from http://www.descriptor.com/setupguides/java-p2/setup/jdeveloper10.1.3.1/javaclass-p2.zip. Unzip the archive to the root directory on Drive C:. You should end up with a subdirectory named c:\javaclass-p2.
To test the JDeveloper installation, use Windows Explorer to navigate to the c:\java\jdeveloper directory and double-click jdeveloper.exe. JDeveloper should start.
Now you need to update environment variables. Go to Start - Settings - Control Panel - System and select the Advanced tab and then press the Environment button. Put the following string at the beginning of the User PATH environment variable:
c:\java\jdeveloper\jdk\bin;
Create the User PATH environment variable if it doesn't already exist.
Make sure the drive and directory match where you actually installed JDeveloper.
To test the Java runtime installation, choose Start - Run, then enter cmd and press OK. In the new command prompt window, enter:
java -fullversion
You should see the version number of the JSDK that you installed. Then type:
javac
You should see the sign-on message from the Java compiler.
If either step fails, re-check the PATH environment variable.
Repeat the Student software setup on the instructor machine.
Download and install the Courseware Viewer program.
Download the Viewer installation program from: http://www.descriptor.com/viewer/binaries/setup.exe
Run the installation program, accepting all defaults.
Download the presentation materials from http://www.descriptor.com/setupguides/java-p2/setup/java-p2-screenshow.zip
Unzip this archive to the root directory on the same drive where you installed the Student Exercise Archive. You should end up with a subdirectory like c:\javaclass\courseware.
Test the Courseware Viewer. From the Windows Start menu, choose Descriptor Systems - Courseware Viewer. Then use the File - Open menu to open the c:\javaclass\courseware\java-p2.crs file. You should see the screen show.
