Summary: Setting up your IDE to Work With GigaSpaces


Follow these steps to prepare your development environment:

  • Ensure you have a JDK installed - you will need version 1.5 or higher, latest Java 1.6 is recommended.

Checking your JDK version

To check your installed Java version:

  1. Open a command line window.
  2. Run set JAVA_HOME
  3. A response similar to this suggests you have a JDK installed:
    JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.6
  4. To check the JDK version, run %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -version
    A response like this from Java indicates you have a good JDK installed:
    java version "1.6.0_23"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_23-b05)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)

    If your installed JDK version is lower then 1.5 or none is installed, see below on how to install one.
