no compile with jdk1.4.0
I used to compile and run with jdk1.3 and had no problems in compiling any kind of programs, but since I updated java to jdk1.4, I can't even compile the HelloWorld program on MSDOS. It launches this: "COMMAND OR INVALID FILE NAME"..I did everything on path and setpath as I used to do it with 1.3. I saved the file like this" HelloWorld.java" and already checked the class name in the programa and is ok!!!
My path is like this: C:\jdk1.4\bin
And the classpath like this: SET CLASSPATH=C:\.; ( just like with jdk1.3 and programs compiled and ran well).
Can somebody help me,please?..
I also uninstalled and installed again jdk1.4 but it does not work neither!!!

I don't what's going on with version 1.4.0 but something's wrong..If you have problems with compiling programs with 1.4, forget about it and come back to install version 1.3.. I've seen in many posts that many people had the same problems like me and any of the solutions about setting path was the right one. I tried everything and the only right solution was reinstall version 1.3
>My path is like this: C:\jdk1.4\bin
Make sure your path is set to the bin directory of the java directory where you installed the J2SDK. For example, mine is c:\j2sdk1.4.0_01\bin
In previous versions, the directory was c:\jdk1.x. I have 1.4 on a Windows XP pc and I experienced no problems with the installation (around last March/April).
You need to set your classpath:
The CLASSPATH is a set of pointers that is used by Java to find the files that you create and want compiled and/or run. This setting is explained here:
Setting the Classpath:

[NOTE: always start your classpath with ".;" which means the current directory. See my classpath, below]

Examples:
This is my classpath
CLASSPATH=.;C:\mjava;C:\mnrx;C:\NetRexx\lib\NetRexxC.jar;C:\j2sdk1.4.0_1\lib\tools.jar;C:\NetRexx\NrxRedBk
