Unable to compile Flex project

Hi,

I am trying to compile flex project with Flash Builder 4, SDK 3.6.0, using ANT task. I am getting the below error while compiling

[echo] compc:java.home:S:\JavaSDK\jre
[compc] Error: could not find a JVM.

I have installed my Java in S drive. In the environment variables, I have set JAVA_HOME to S:\JavaSDK\bin

In the bin folder of flex sdk, in jvm.config, I have set the java home to "S:\JavaSDK\jre".
Even if I change this to "S:\JavaSDK\jre\bin", my build still echoes "[echo] compc:java.home:S:\JavaSDK\jre" and not "[echo] compc:java.home:S:\JavaSDK\jre\bin".

I dont know what is happening, but ultimately I need to make FLex recognize my JVM and I am also confused, where flex is taking the java.home from. Is it only from jvm.config or elsewhere. It cant be referring to environment variables because it points to jdk bin directory as said earlier.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Ram

It looks like you are pointing to a JRE (Java Runtime Environment). The JRE is used when you want to run a Java program that has already been compiled. Since you want to do some code compilation, you should point to a Software Development Kit - you can get the Java SDK from Oracle: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

The actual issue is when compiling I am receiving unable to load jvm.dll, cannot find JVM. Then when I googled, there were suggestions to edit the jvm.config in flex bin. In that file, there are instructions to point to JRE directly, which is what I am trying to do here. But still, the issue persists.

Did you get to the bottom of this problem? I am having the exact same issue.
