It does. To make sure, check also "javac -version". If it works - you have Java installed.
if you install it in /opt/java/jdk1.5.0_08 set this as --with-javaHowever, I'm not sure I understand. J2SE is like a full version of JRE (the version of java you need to run applications, which is what I want to do), isn't it? But jdk looks like the development kit. What am I missing?
JRE just allows Java programs to execute (iterprets Java VM), but J2SE (or J2SDK or development kit) allows also to compile from Java programs into Java VM code.
