Looking for gcj and Geany

[Guest]

Hi!
I'm new to linux and I'm using kubuntu.
I am a java programmer. I asked one of my friends about Java Compilers and Editors and he recommended gcj compiler and Geany . How can I install these two? Please help!

Re: Looking for gcj and Geany

You haven't told us what version of Kubuntu your are running, but assuming it's current, both gcj and geany are available in the repositories for installation.

KPackageKit - the 'default' package manager, well, SUCKS. Do your self a favor, open a console and install Synaptic and/or Muon package managers and use either for all your package management needs. In the console type:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install synaptic muon

Both package managers will be found in K > Applications > System. Launch either one and search on gcj and then geany. Select both and install them. Done.

You can also just install both from a console by typing:

sudo apt-get update
sudo install gcj geany
