How can I easily set Java Path?

Asked by joseMaestro

Hello,

I have just downloaded the last bundle there is for the Java Development toolkit, and unpacked it successfully.
I need to know if there's a way to easily set the path for it. By this I mean, without having to edit config. files. because this process is error-prone.

I need Java Path to be directed to> /home/jose/java/jdk1.6.0_16/bin

I know there's a way.
Please let me know How you would do it.

SIncerely,

Jose

On Ubuntu Linux the common way to install the JDK is to use the built-in packet management system.
Just go into the terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
You should will it a try.
