hi Sudarson, I think it is since jdk1.2 that all Win32 OS java installations place a registry key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.2|1.3 which is called JavaHome which points to the location of the JRE directory, under which resides directory lib that holds the core java jar files, properties files and others. zm.

Even if I don't have any classpath entry, it compiles and run java code that uses core java packages. Does any body having idea of this ? Is it that some registry entry is used or something else ? Any suggestion is welcome. Though this question is totally out of topic, I could not bar myself to put this exciting thing here. Sorry for the inconvenience, if any.
