Where is the jdk installed?

[ryy705]

Hello,
Could some one tell me where java 1.6 jdk is installed in Kubuntu? I downloaded and ran the .bin file but I don't know where its installed. I tried the sudo find command and it gave a bunch of files files with jdk in their names but no directory. I need to add some helper classes to the jdk folder. Please help me out I have been searching directories after directories with no avail.

Check /usr/local and see if it's there.

Nope. Not there.

When I installed sun-java6-jre via Adept Manager, it installed to a folder in /usr/share

I think I found it. Its all in /usr/lib/jvm/
Interesting, Java folder is in /usr/share but its empty!

Well, as I only installed the Java Runtime Environment, and you (apparently ?) installed the Java Developers Kit, that (would ?) explain the location difference.

(Optional) If you would like, you can move it to /usr/local/java. Just open Konsole and type "sudo mv /usr/lib/jvm/jdk* /usr/local/java". I personally like to keep all my manually installed files in the /usr/local directory.
