Time for action - installing JBDS

Once the download is complete, you can start the JBDS installation. Note that unlike JBoss AS or JBoss ESB, JBDS is installed by means of a GUI-based installer. Follow these steps:

In a command shell window, move to the directory to which the JBDS distribution file was downloaded.
Run the installer by locating the JBDS file that you downloaded and running it with Java. For example, on a 64-bit Linux system, you'd use the following command:
Code View: Scroll / Show All
```
java -jar jbdevstudio-product-linux-gtk-x86_64-4.1.0.v201108011413R-H647-GA.jar


					  
```
The installer now presents the following nine steps to you. Step 1 is an introduction and step 2 asks you to accept the license terms (we promise that nothing bad will happen).
In step 3 of the installer, you specify the directory where you want JBDS to be installed. We'll use /opt/devstudio/ as our installation directory. If you specify a directory that does not exist, the installer will create that directory for you. Click Next to continue.
Select the Java JVM that you want to use. Remember how we said that Java 6 was a prerequisite? You should simply select the Java 6 JVM that you have installed on your computer. Then, click Next to continue:
IDE stands for Integrated Development Environment. In JBDS, this integration includes enabling you to run a server without leaving JBDS. Select Add and we'll configure our JBoss AS server:
Select Application Server and specify the directory where our JBoss AS server is installed. Then click Ok.
Verify that the name and location are correct, and click Next. You should then see a screen which summarizes the status of the installation.
At this point, you have supplied all the information that the installer needs, so click Next to start the installation.

As the installer works, it will display progress information.
When it completes, it will give you the option to create shortcuts. These make it easier for you to start JBDS. It's very helpful to have a shortcut on your desktop and Start menu, so check both of them and click Next.
When you see the following screen, you'll know that you're done!
Select Done to close the installer. You should see the following shortcut on your desktop:
Double-click on the shortcut and we'll finish setting up JBDS.
