setenv?

[Lando]

I've to write the settings below.....but I don't understand where to put them..

they are for JMF ( java API ) but I think that the right place should be .bashrc .

Unfortunatly it doesn't work ! Many thanks

 

 

setenv JMFHOME /home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e

 

setenv CLASSPATH $JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}

 

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $JMFHOME/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

Hi Lando,

setenv CLASSPATH $JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}

 

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $JMFHOME/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

 

The syntax you presented above reminds me of tcsh. Bash is different in treating variables. Please try the following pattern:

 

#$> JMFHOME=/home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e

...

 

You can check by

 

#$> echo $JMFHOME

You can also use the EXPORT function

 

export JMFHOME /home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e

 

etc.

You can also use the EXPORT function

 

export JMFHOME /home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e

 

etc.

 

It works only if I use the form >>>

JMFHOME /home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e

export $JMFHOME

Then echo are OK >>>>>

[lando@localhost ~]$ echo $JMFHOME

/home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e

 

[lando@localhost ~]$ echo $CLASSPATH

/home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e/lib/jmf.jar:.::/home/lando/j2sdk1.4.2_10:/home/lando/j2sdk1.4.2_10

 

[lando@localhost ~]$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

/home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e/lib:

 

 

Though when I open a terminal all of the bash variables are shown on the screen and

this warning....-

bash: export: `/home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e/lib/jmf.jar:.::/home/lando/j2sdk1.4.2_10:/home/lando/j2sdk1.4.2_10': not a valid identifier

bash: export: `/home/lando/JMF-2.1.1e/lib:': not a valid identifier

:mellow:

...jmf.jar:.::/home... You only need one : between the library paths so the correct is jmf.jar:/home

[Lando]

The instructions suggested this entry ,that gave the last problem...>>>

CLASSPATH=$JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}

export $CLASSPATH

 

I've changed them as below and it work >>>>>

 

 

CLASSPATH=$JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.

export CLASSPATH

It will work but i think it is not a good idea to install something in your home directory.

I installed JMF and the Java MP3 plugin yesterday in /usr/java, where also the Java Runtime Environment is installed. It works just the same but it is more safe.

 

To set the environment variables i created a file jmf.sh and placed it in directory /etc/profile.d.

The commands i put in this fale are:

export JMFHOME=/usr/java/JMF-2.1.1e

export CLASSPATH=$JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$JMFHOME/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

 

In this way JMF is also available to ALL users on the PC.
