appletviewer does not kick in linux
i'm new to java and am testing it to both linux and windows. i started with basic simple tutorial after installing j2sdk1.4.2_06 in windows and linux. i have no problem with windows except with linux. i can compile and run using javac and java commands in the terminal however, when i started with appletviewer command the result is
-bash: appletviewer: command not found.
Also i run and compliled the program below in linux
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Welcome4 {
public static void main (String args[])
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(
null, "Welcome\nto\nJava\nProgramming!");
System.exit (0); //terminate program
}
}
but the result is
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: unexpected exception during
linking: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.swing.JOptionPane
