environment variables
in [Java Programming]
|
From: Bill Cunningham on 17 Apr 2010 15:43 I am running MCE XP and am having a very difficult time setting environment variables. Is javac used anymore for the java compiler or jar used for jar files anymore? I am also setting up ant to build a tomcat server from source. I have added to path the path name of my jdk and I can run java from any folder. Any hints on settings for ant and tomcat? Bill

You should set JAVA_HOME and ANT_HOME env vars and have JDK bin dir in PATH. javac and jar are still current. Arne

On Windows you set them in: control panel system advanced environment Be very carefully not to delete anything existing! >> javac and jar are still current. > > I can run java from any location from the DOS box.
