This is a perfect example of why providing tech support is such a difficult
proposition for Emacs and why I now require a bug report. You have a very
interesting .emacs file. It plays all kinds of games with the command
execution environment, like setting the Emacs exec-path at the beginning
and then setting the path environment variable somewhere in the middle to a
set of munged DOS path names. Note that your setting of the exec-path does
not include the JDK bin directory. Of course, your initial request for help
never mentioned these very relevent facts, making it impossible for anyone
to figure out the cause of the bizarre behavior you are experiencing. I
don't know why you feel it necessary to fiddle with these variables but I
am certain that your settings are the source of your problems. If I were
you, I'd just leave these variables alone and let Emacs and Windows do
their thing.
Another thing. Your .emacs file includes the following line:
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons (cons "\\.java\\'" 'java-mode)
auto-mode-alist))
This tells Emacs to run java-mode when it loads a Java file. This overrides
the JDE's own setting of this variable to tell Emacs that it is the mode
for Java buffers. I'm surprised that you even get a JDE menu. I'd suggest
that you remove this line.
