ask: How to set environment variables for Java 2 (JDK1.2)? answer: After Java 2 is installed, you need to set the PATH and JAVA_HOME environment variables. The difference from JDK1.1 is that after setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable, the JVM will automatically search the system class library and the user's current path. The Java 2 environment variables are set as shown in the following example: Solaris platform: setenv JAVA_HOME Java2 installation path setenv PATH $JAVA_HOME/bin:${;PATH}; Windows platform: set JAVA_HOME=Java2 installation path set PATH=$JAVA_HOMEbin;%PATH%
