~**Java Runtime Environment** runs programs written in [[Java]]. Not to be confused with [[JavaScript]].

==Installation==
~Install the appropriate package, newer versions should be more secure:

~Packages may also be available in the official repository for your Puppy either through the Puppy Package Manager or the SlickPet/QuickPet app.

==Version Check and Enabling==
~Verify the installed version via the command-line interface: %%(bash)java -version%%
~Alternatively visit one of the following pages:
~~[[http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp testjava (java.com)]]
~~[[http://javatester.org/version.html version (javatester.org)]] - finds even if disabled in browser
---

**Symlink for Mozilla (Firefox and Seamonkey)**
~A [[symlink]] may need adding to the plugin directory, for example:
~Newer versions:
~Create directory ##~/.mozilla/plugins## if it does not already exist
~%%(bash)ln -s /usr/java/java/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so%%
~Older versions:
~%%(bash)ln -s /usr/java/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so%%
---
~Web browser configuration confirmation (older versions only, JavaScript needs to be enabled within the Web browser):
~~[[LibreOffice]]
~~~Enable Java: //Tools > Options > ""LibreOffice"" > Java//
~~[[SeaMonkey]]
~~~Enable Java: //Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Enable Java//
~~[[Firefox]]
~~~Enable Java: //Tools > Options > Content > Enable Java//
~~[[Opera]]
~~~Enable Java: //Tools > Quick Preferences > Enable Plug-ins//
~~~Enable ""JavaScript"": //Tools > Quick Preferences > Enable ""JavaScript""//
---
~Applications may need to be configured and re-started after installation.

==Java Development Kit (JDK)==
~An alternative to installing the runtime environment is to use the full development kit.
~Use an appropriate package, newer versions should be more secure:
