Hello everyone,
I would like to install Eclipse in my machine. Before I install Eclipse, I need to install JDK. When I try to install JDK in D drive, I am facing problems in setting the path as well when i execute autoexec.bat.
Could anyone forward me the url where I can find step by step procedure to install the JDK along with Eclipse.

Thanks,
bobby

What operating system are you using? What version of Java are you installing? What problems are you having updating the path?

The Java Tutorials page about "common problems" has a link in to the installation instructions where it tells you to set your PATH permanently ("optional").

Take no notice about "optional;" follow the instructions and that will tell you how to set the PATH permanently. There is no need to do anything with the CLASSPATH at this stage.

Are you trying to edit the windows autoexec.bat file to set the path?
Then it is notthe right way to do it, alternately go to My computer->properties->advanced->environment variables->path.



Hope this helps

Then it is not the right way to do it . . .

It is the right way if you still use Windows 98.
