The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Downloading Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) :(

Asked by samsungfanatic in Java Programming Language

Tags: download, 2, standard

Hi,

I am a new and very eager to learn Java, i wanted to download a Java compiler from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html (J2SE v 1.4.2_01), however i have a little problem. I am currently running on a 56k modem with an ISP that disconnects me from the internet every 2 hours. My problem is that the compiler (J2SE v 1.4.2_01) from the site above is around 40 something megabytes and i am unable to download it within the 2 hours i have on the internet (which of course i have to reconnect when disconnected).

How can i obtain this program? Sometimes when i'm downloading something and i get disconnected the computer/ browser picks the download up from where it left off. However this only happens sometimes, how can i make it happen all the time so that i can obtain the software? If this is not possible, am i able to purchase a retail version of the compiler?

My typical download speed is about 6 kb/sec, i am running Windows 98 with Internet Explorer 5.

Your help is much appreciated.

PS. I am sorry if i posted this message on the wrong section, but i thought you guys might know some way of obtaining or purchasing this software.

Samsungfanatic.
