Compiling Java Program...

[Shan Srivastava]

Hello,

Trying to compile Java program with the latest version of Texpad. I downloaded the Newest release Java SDK 1.4.1_01 and everything downloaded fine to Programs Folder. (Texpad as well). Now when I go to compile a java program saved with the same class name and everything it give this error:
C:WINDOWS\System32\javac.exe?

I know the file should be located in the \bin directory but Textpad doesn't seem to find the file?

I haven't done anything to the PATH is this the problem? If it is could you give me an example of what to write in there?

Any help.

Thanks
Shan

The java bin directory must be in your windows PATH (not CLASSPATH). This can be set in different ways for different operating systems.

Would you happen to know what to write in the AUTOEXEC.BAT for Windows XP?
Is it an absolute path? This is what I have and it is not responding

PATH=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\JAVA\J2RE1.4.1_01\BIN;

Nope, on NT (and so XP) you would modify the environment variable to adjust the path. Point to Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> System Variable -> path
