Neatbeans IDE Question

I'm trying to Install Neatbeans IDE on my school network. The problem I'm running into is the IDE is looking for the JDK in the local DIR "C:\program files\Java\(JDK version)".I was wondering if there's a way I can tell Neatbeans to look in the correct DIR.

I dont use NetBeans, but there should be a way. Try contacting Netbeans tech support and see if they can help you out.

I found the answer incase anyone else was wondering.

Use the --jdkhome <path> option when starting NetBeans. <path> is the root of the JDK installation.

The NetBeans installer looks for suitable JDK installations available on user's system and allows the user to select the one she wants to run NetBeans with. However, the setting may become obsolete when the user installs a new JDK later, or may be inconvenient when she wants to run the IDE with another JDK. That's where the --jdkhome swich comes handy.

If you want to set the option permanently, you can do so in the netbeans.conf file.

Examples

* Windows

netbeans.exe --jdkhome "C:\Program Files\jdk1.5.0_02"

* Unix

netbeans --jdkhome /usr/bin/jdk1.5.0_02

Applies to NetBeans 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 5.0

Platforms: All
