Today my exam in Computer Networks took place. Well, to be honest, this was the first really tough Computer Science course that I took. I was really concerned at one time, but then everything went back to normal. A few weeks back I had to create a Server-Client application, imitating the work flow of an ATM machine. I decided to do it under JAVA, although this is not one of my favorite languages. I am glad that I was able to do the task. I have not used it for an year or more. I used Net Beans 6.5.1 at first, but at compile time there was some problem, as I was using System.IO Console and the output window was notable to accommodate it. I switched back to Eclipse – same problem….and then I realized that it was the Class Path. OMG people [from NB or EC's teams], it’s not so difficult to create the distribution so that sets the Windows Environmental Variables properly….yet I had to look for hours for different solutions. It happened so that the case is easy to solve, just I was overestimating the problem seriousness.
