How can I know which version of java SDK is running on my system? If I have jdk1.3.1, is this version ok to run j2ee application if we install just the application server or do we have to install 1.4.2_06 or higher?

In the java tutorial, there are some statments like
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/example/common/build.properties
What is this statement and where do you use this?


Thanks
Sai

You can find out which SDK (= JDK or Java SDK) version you are running by executing "java -version" in a command prompt (Windows) or terminal (Unix)window.

Which version of the JDK or JRE you need depends on which version of which J2EE application server you want to install. Look in the documentation (readme or installation notes) of the J2EE app server you want to install.

Open a command prompt. Enter java -version. Like this:-

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\user>java -version
java version "1.6.0-beta2"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-beta2-b86)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-beta2-b86, mixed mode)

C:\Documents and Settings\user>



And why not upgrade to a newer version than 1.3?

I have used java-version statment but it gives me an error message as follows
'java-version' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Try a space between java and the hyphen.

With respect to the build.properties file, I suggest you try our Build Tools forum.
