RE: Ant in Eclipse 2.1: Unable to find a javac compiler

Hi Rob,

I think it's got something to do with your system enviroment variables. 
Check and see what JAVA_HOME is  in a dos prompt i.e. type

set JAVA_HOME

and see if that's the correct path. 
I think Eclipse picks this up upon installation.

I'm fairly new to Eclipse myself so this may not be your problem.

Thanks,
Mark.

Subject: Ant in Eclipse 2.1: Unable to find a javac compiler

Hello,

I've just upgraded my Eclipse IDE to 2.1, and with it I got ant 1.5.2.
However, I get the following error which is hard for me to understand:

[javac] BUILD FAILED:
file:F:/tdk/webapps/webs4/WEB-INF/build/build.xml:399:
Unable to find a javac compiler; com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the
classpath. Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK

It is hard for me to understand because Eclipse has no problem compiling
my
code, and JAVA_HOME is set properly. Anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks,

Robert Douglass
