Revision as of 21:58, 6 February 2011

The steps needed to install Scala and Netbeans on Ubuntu are slightly complicated, as you need the latest version of Scala (not the one that comes with Ubuntu) to get the Netbeans plugins to work. If you have already installed Scala and Netbeans, the instructions below will remove them and install the correct versions for you.

This is what you should do:

  • Copy the BASH script below into a file called `install-scala.sh`
  • Open a command line. `cd` to wherever you stored `install-scala.sh`
  • Make the script executable by executing the following command on the shell (remember you don't type in the $, that's the shell prompt!):
 
$ chmod +x install-scala.sh
  
  • Run the script like this (you will be asked to enter your password):
 
$ ./install-scala.sh
  
  • Check that Scala was installed properly, like this:
 
$ source ~/.bashrc
$ scala
Welcome to Scala version 2.8.1.final (Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM, Java 1.6.0_22).
