Hi!
I hope I'm posting to the right area....if not, my apologies.


A friend coded a java application (console) .class file that we want to run on my Mac OSX, but I don't know how to load the Java Virtual Machine or whatver app is used to run java files...

He's a PC dude and is not familiar with how things work on Mac. I'm a designer, not a coder, so I am CLUELESS!! ...heck, I hardly understand the question I'm asking!!
)

can anyone help?

Thanks!!

Well I found this, http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/ct/45

Which confirms their's a decent amount of support for Java development apps for Mac, as well as a variety to choose from. I hear xCode is pretty good.

Bring up a terminal window, navigate to the directory with console.class in it and type 'java console'. ?

Thank you guys!
