where to get Java?

Where to get Java Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK) 6

I am using Java Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK) 6 nowadays. You can also download the latest version of JDK 6 and its documentation from:
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/download.jsp

If the link above doesn't work, just go to their root URL: http://java.sun.com and browse through their download section.

They also have Java forum there, but ...
Mainly, there are three things we should take note before we post in the forum:


  • make sure to post the question into the correct thread, or the question wouldn't be answered properly. Some users will react quite unfriendly towards this kind of posting, you know. Well, I said some, not all of them, but why should post it uselessly to any wrong thread?
  • make sure to use their special feature for our source codes readibility (they have the special button), or our codes will be ignored completely. Because, frankly, nobody would try to read the messed up code lines. Neither you, neither I. Right?
  • make sure to have read the related documentation and tutorials before asking the question. Some users there are quite harsh in answering questions which (according to them) already have the answers somewhere in the documentation or Java Sun's Tutorials Section.


... and don't forget to use friendly words towards them, also don't forget to go back to say thanks when you have gotten your answers.

I wish for your good luck in Java programming. Thank you for visiting my site. :)
