java compiler install

[Skie]

Ok so im trying to get sun disk java compiler on my computer and having some issues with it. Was wondering if anyone could help me out. I've followed this guide exactly to no avail. The error i am getting is:

'javac; is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Im running windows 7 64 bit. I've tried setting the path to:

C:\Program Files\Java\JDK1.5.0_04\bin

and

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\JDK1.5.0_04\bin

neither work. My current pathing is:

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\Sy stem32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShel l\v1.0\;c:\Program Files (x86)\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static;c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Roxio Shared\DLLShared;C:\Program Files\Java\JDK1.5.0_04\bin

Thanks a ton

Why are you using the command line interface when you dont have to? Just get rid of all the stuff you have installed, install the latest version of java, and install netbeans and call it a day

I like to use it when I want to execute some java quickly and pretty often. Netbeans is kind of a large program. Of course you could leave it open all the time, but I'd rather not. It's also nice for when you make batch files. I made a FFXIII calculator a while back and had a batch file on my desktop to run it quick, fast, and easy.

Anyway, sorry, Skie. I don't know how to fix your problem.

This. Also when you select to store the project as folder based, it will index all the files in the program/libraries so it doesn't take all that long to open/link everything. Netbeans/IntelliJ is amazing.
