This page describes the  way how students can use computing facilities of EECS to
do Java programming

WindowsNT Machines:

    There are bunch of Windows NT boxes in Sloan 353a, 353b and 353c.
    You can use any of machines in Sloan 353a any time. However, machines in 353b and 353c
    are reserved for some class labs. Check the schedule of those labs before you use machines.

    Java SDK 2(Java Development Tool Kit)  has been installed for students to use.
    It is installed under "Z" drive  which is the location of every student's home directory.
    To use Java SDK 2, simply type the following in command line.

     Z:\>  set path=Z:\jdk\bin

     Now you can use javac and java.
 

Linux Machines:

    Linux boxes are available for Java programming. However those machines are located at EME130 which is
    the designated CS150 lab. So to use one of machines in EME130, you have to remotely log in from
    Unix boxes in Sloan 353. (or machine in Sloan 242)

    There are more than 25 Linux boxes available in EME130. There domain names are:
        pc130-01.eecs.wsu.edu
        pc130-02.eecs.wsu.edu
               ...................
        pc130-24.eecs.wsu.edu

    You can log in to any of those machines above.
    Once you are logged in one of them,  you need to set PATH  environment variable just like we
    do in Windows NT environment.
    If you are using the ``C Shell'' (csh) do the following:

        % set path = (.   /net/local/jdk1.2.2/bin $path)
       % rehash

    If you are using the ``Bourne Shell'' (sh or bash) do the following:

         % set PATH=".:/net/local/jdk1.2.2/bin/:"$PATH

   Now you should be able to enjoy Java programming!!!
