Add Variables — Java

First, you need to Locating the Environment Variables

1. Open up the system properties (WinKey + Pause) and you should see the below screen.

2. From the system properties, tab select the «Advanced» link. This should take you to the below screen.

3. From the System Properties screen select the «Advanced Tab». On this screen click the «Environment Variables» button.

4. You should now be seeing something like the below screen.

Now You Are Ready To Add Variables — JAVA

In the system variables section click in the «New» button.

In here enter the variable name : JAVA_HOME

Enter the variable value as the location of the java jdk installed in the previous section. (This is assuming you already have installed Java SDK. If you haven’t now is the time to do it)

For Example of my location below. (Please note the variable value will vary depending on your install location and version of the jdk)

Click ok to complete this action. Once completed you should see the JAVA_HOME variable in the list of system variables.

Next, you need to add the newly created JAVA_HOME variable on to your path.

To do this locate the «Path» variable in the system variables list. Select it and click the edit button.

This should bring up the below option.

Scroll to the end of the «variable value» field and append on the following

;%JAVA_HOME%\bin

Click «OK» to confirm and leave the edit path screen.

Once complete click «OK» to confirm and leave the Environment variables screen.

Next, open a new command prompt (Winkey + R then type cmd) and run «java -version» to verify that it is correctly installed.

If it is you should see something similar to the below screenshot.

How to get the Desktop path in java

I think this will work only on an English language Windows installation:

How can I make this work for non English Windows?

8 Answers 8

I use a french version of Windows and with it the instruction:

works fine for me.

I think this is the same question. but I’m not sure!:

Reading it I would expect that solution to return the user.home, but apparently not, and the link in the answer comments back that up. Haven’t tried it myself.

I guess by using JFileChooser the solution will require a non-headless JVM, but you are probably running one of them.

This is for Windows only. Launch REG.EXE and capture its output :

Seems not that easy.

But you could try to find an anwser browsing the code of some open-source projects, e.g. on Koders. I guess all the solutions boil down to checking the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Desktop path in the Windows registry. And probably are Windows-specific.

If you need a more general solution I would try to find an open-source application you know is working properly on different platforms and puts some icons on the user’s Desktop.

there are 2 things.

1. you are using the wrong slash. for windows it’s \ not / .
2. i’m using RandomAccesFile and File to manage fles and folders, and it requires double slash ( \\ ) to separate the folders name.

Call File.mkdir , like this:

With Java 7 and newer you can use the static Files.createDirectory() method of the java.nio.file.Files class along with Paths.get .

The method Files.createDirectories() also creates parent directories if these do not exist.

Use the mkdir method on the File class:

Better to use mkdirs as:

mkdirs : also create parent directories if these do not exist.

ps: don’t forget the ending / that shows explicitly you want to make a directory.

The following code would be helpful for the creation of single or multiple directories:

Установка Java (JDK) в Windows и Linux, переменная PATH и JAVA_HOME

Java — язык общего назначения, основанных на классах, поддерживающий многопоточность и являющийся объектно-ориентированным. Программы на Java компилируются в так называемый byte-код, который в свою очередь запускается Виртуальной Машиной Java (Java Virtual Machine — JVM), независимо от архитектуры компьютера. На данный момент последняя версия Java двенадцатая.

Ниже мы рассмотрим — как установить Java на Windows и Linux. Для каждой из платформ создана своя версия JDK, JRE и JVM, хотя сами программы на Java и не меняются от платформы к платформе (что логично).

Давайте проясним несколько вещей перед тем, как мы начнем.

• JDK (Java Development Kit) — эта штука нужна для разработчиков на Java (то есть нас) и включает в себя инструменты разработки, документирования, упаковки и так далее (в том числе компилятор Javac, Javadoc, Jar-упаковщик и дебаггер).
• JRE (Java Runtime Environment) — сюда включены библиотеки Java, которые необходимы для запуска Java-программ. Эта штука нужна обычным пользователям и не содержит инструментов для разработки.
• JVM (Java Virtual Machine) — это и есть сама виртуальная машина Java, которая непосредственно и запускает наши Java-программы (байткод). Ее реализация написана для множества железа и платформ.

Установка Java (JDK) в Windows

Первым делом необходимо скачать JDK с официальной страницы Oracle. В нашем случае нужна версия под Windows, в самом низу.

После установки запустите скачанный exe-файл и установите его на ваш компьютер. Как только вы это сделаете, нужно будет настроить окружение.

Перейдите в Панель управления -> Система и безопасность -> Система. На вкладке «Дополнительно» нажмите на «Переменные среды», как показано ниже:

Теперь нужно найти и дополнить переменную PATH так, чтобы она содержала путь до установленной Java. Выберите PATH и нажмите «Изменить»:

Вы увидите список уже установленных переменных. Сейчас необходимо нажать «Новый» и добавить путь, по которому установлена Java (каталог bin!). По умолчанию это обычно «C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jdk\bin».

Нажмите «Готово» (или «Ок»), сохраните настройки и на этом всё готово! Чтобы проверить, что установка прошла корректно, откройте консоль и введите:

Если вы получили сведения о версии Java, значит всё хорошо.

Установка Java (JDK) на Linux

В Linux есть несколько способов установить Java. Мы опишем самый простой и быстрый, с использование терминала. И в данном случае мы установим OpenJDK. OpenJDK — это бесплатная и свободная реализация виртуальной машины Java, причем очень популярная.

Откройте терминал и напишите команду для установки пакета:

Осталось подтвердить установку и на этом всё, Java установлена! Единственное, что меняется — это прописывание путей до компилятора.

Чтобы прописать JAVA_HOME в окружение, выполните следующую команду (только убедитесь, что такой каталог уже есть):

Чтобы прописать компилятор Java в PATH, выполните другую команду (опять же, ваши пути до Java могут отличаться от моих):

На этом установка закончена. Чтобы проверить, что всё работает правильно, достаточно написать в терминале:

О том, как же всё-таки писать на Java, мы расскажем в следующий раз.
