Hello, I am new to the BB JDE and to Java in general.

I am following a tutorial at the BlackBerryCool website (PM Me if you need a link; I don't have 10 posts yet :P)

However when I build (either F7 or Build>Build) I get the following output:

Building Lection_1

How do I fix this?

Thanks an advance,

What do you get if you open a command window and run this command?

javac -version

[pgoeol]

It is unable to find javac in the path, adding Java path must solve your issue.

--Pulkit

So where does javac go?

com/sun/tools/

There?

Have you installed the 1.6 JDK? THis is required. I beleive it winds up in c:\Program Files\Java\JDK_1_6_05\bin

(or something like that)
