Windows directory path in BUILDING.txt

Hi,

     I was Building the Derby on windows machine for which referred
BUILDING.txt from my ${derby.source}. there was an example in section
3.2(Creating
ant.properties) showing how to set j14lib which was like....

                        j14lib=C:\j2sdk1.4.2_10\jre\lib (for windows
machine)


but if you do so....you will get error.....


[setJdkProperties] java.vendor = Sun Microsystems Inc.
[setJdkProperties] java.home = C:\java5\jdk1.5.0\jre
[setJdkProperties] java.version = 1.5.0
[setJdkProperties] os.name = Windows XP
*[setJdkProperties] j14lib = C:j2sdk1.4.2_10jrelib
[setJdkProperties] j15lib = C:java5jre1.5.0lib*
[setJdkProperties]
[setJdkProperties] Please consult BUILDING.txt for instructions on how to
set the jdk-library and compiler-classpath properties.

and if you do    *  j14lib=C:\\j2sdk1.4.2_10\\jre\\lib* (Double slash)
you won't get this error......
I figured that out in minutes but may be this could consume time of some
other newbie like me
has anyone else noticed this in BUILDING.txt
