javac not working
ok, until now i have been using the javac that came with JBuilder. Now I want to use the Queue interface and upgraded to jre1.5.0_06. Now i have set my PATH to point to that folder.. c:\program files\java\jre1.5.0_06\bin and my classpath to just the dot .
But there is no javac file in the new java directory, so how does it work?
What do i have to download or set in order for my javac command works anywhere...
When i run java -version i get the 1.5.0_06 so thats ok, but it doesnt help if i cant compile it with it allowing the queue interface...
Thanks

Hi, I've been having a similar problem.
I have javac.exe here:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin
But when I try >javac -version at cmd, I get:
'javac' is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Same when I try to use javac on a file.
I have added the above address to the classpath (not sure if that's the right thing to do?)
Any help appreciated!
