Before proceeding further, you should

1) Read what the JDE web site says about using the Windows version of XEmacs.

2) Read what the JDE web site says about how to ask for technical support.

The "/c" is the DOS shell command switch generated by Emacs when launching
the Java compile process, i.e., Emacs uses the equivalent of

SHELL COMMAND_SWITCH javac -classpath "d:\classes" -sourcepath
"d:\projects\java\testapps" HelloWorld.java

to launch the compile process where SHELL is the value of the Emacs
variable shell-file-name and COMMAND_SWITCH is the value of the Emacs
variable shell-command-switch. Using the wrong combination of these two
variables, e.g., a Unix shell with a DOS command switch or a DOS shell with
a Unix command switch, is  going to cause the launch to fail.
