Hello!
I'm using emacs-20.7 on windows and I keep getting the message "Cannot find JDK's tools jar file. See jde-get-jdk-dir." from it when trying to compile a java source. I've tried setting the jdk-dir manually but it probably gets overriden by somthing since that wouldn't work. Running and debugging works fine, but when I want to compile, i have to do it manually. what i know, jde is supposed to use SHELL COMMAND_SWITCH javac OPTIONS BUFFER_NAME.java as the compiling method, and I don't see why it wants tools.jar, since it's running an external command when compiling. the designated compiler (jde-compiler) is set to its default javac.exe which of course lies in the system path variable, and i've set the shell-file-name and shell-command-switch variables correctly i'm using jde-2.2.9.1 eieio-0.17 elib-1.0 semantic-1.4 speedbar-0.13a btw, i'm obviously no expert in this matter, so if anything above seems strange or anything, just ignore it. All i want to know is how to make the jde-get-jdk-dir NOT to fail or how to "help" it find whatever it is looking for, so that I can compile from within emacs. I've read other posts about similar problems, but I did not understood the answer/solution (if any). thanks in advanced. /rod _________________________________________________________________ Hitta billigaste resan på MSN Resor http://www.msn.se/resor/default.asp
