Path Setting Tutorial

For bash Shell:

  1. Edit the startup file (~/ .bashrc)
  2. Modify PATH variable:
    PATH="$PATH":/usr/local/jdk1.6.0/bin
  3. export PATH (2.和3.可合并为export PATH="$PATH":/usr/local/jdk1.6.0/bin  (我的情况为export PATH="$PATH":/root/jdk1.7.0_03/bin )
  4. Save and close the file
  5. Open new Terminal window
