How to see java installed directory ? Please help me
Hi All,

I am using SunOS 5.8 and KSH shell. My problem is , I can't find my java installed directory. Java is running from /usr/bin folder but I think there java is the link to actual java directory. Also nothin is set to $JAVA_HOME env variable. How to see the actual program location pointed by 'usr/bin/java' link.

Please help me as I am struggling to find it out for past 3 hours.

Code:
~/$  ls -l /usr/bin/java
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     other         16 Jul 27  2007 /usr/bin/java -> ../java/bin/java

so /usr/java/bin/java is my JRE unless there is a link further up that chain...
Code:
ls -l /usr/java
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     other         15 Jul  8  2009 /usr/java -> jdk/jdk1.5.0_19

so is /usr/jdk/jdk1.5.0_19 , well it would seem not...
Code:
ls -l /usr/jdk/jdk1.5.0_19
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     other         18 Jul  8  2009 /usr/jdk/jdk1.5.0_19 -> instances/jdk1.5.0

and finally
Code:
ls -l /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.5.0
total 34630

-rw-r--r--   1 root     bin      17570501 May  4  2009 src.zip

So in my case //usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.5.0/bin/java is my actual binary
