I have problems installing openni_kinect stack. I can't install the openni drivers on my system. I meet the following errors in my 'make':

../../../../../Wrappers/OpenNI.jni/methods.inl:314: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char’ /bin/sh: javac: not found make[3]: [../../../Bin/Release/org.OpenNI.jar] Error 127 make[2]: [Wrappers/OpenNI.java] Error 2 failed to execute: make PLATFORM=x86 -C ../Build > /home/yuanwei/drivers/openni/build/openni/Platform/Linux-x86/CreateRedist/Output/BuildOpenNI.txt Building Failed! make[1]: [installed] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/yuanwei/drivers/openni' make: * [openni_lib] Error 2

I've installed java sdk but these errors still stay. Any ideas how to solve this?

I was following the instruction to install the openni_kinect stack. And this is the point where I'm stuck hg clone https://kforge.ros.org/openni/drivers cd drivers make

We're going to need to know more about your system. What platform? What hardare? What versions? If you're on ubuntu, why not just install using the pre-built packages?

my system is ubuntu 10.04, kernel linux 2.6.32-33-generic-pae, GNOME 2.30.2. My hardware is Intel Core2 duo CPU E8400. Pre-built packages? How do I install the pre-built packages? any url that you can point me to?

Use the electric install instructions: http://www.ros.org/wiki/electric/Installation/Ubuntu. Then, do sudo apt-get install openni-kinect (I'm remember that package name off the top of my head; might be slightly wrong).

Hi Mac, Thanks for your kindness and suggestions. I've managed to resolve the problem. It seems that even though I've followed the java sdk installation instructions from the oracle website, the default java version is always openjdk.

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sun-java-community-team/sun-java6 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

I did the above steps to install the java6-sdk. And the openni-kinect driver builds successfully now!
