Why run sbt with the prefix "./"? he does not work
I am trying to install Kafka and the docs say:
> tar xzf kafka-<VERSION>.tgz
> cd kafka-<VERSION>
> ./sbt update
> ./sbt package
> ./sbt assembly-package-dependency
So, when I try to run ./sbt update, I get this error:
root@kfk1:~/kafka-0.8.1.1-src# ./sbt
-bash: ./sbt: No such file or directory
But if I try without "./", this will work:
root@kfk1:~/kafka-0.8.1.1-src# sbt update
Getting org.scala-sbt sbt 0.13.5 ...
- Is this prefix mandatory? Why?
- If I do not use, will the executed command be the same?
