I just installed the Java 2 Runtime Environment on my XP machine. I haven't used java in over a year and at that time I was running 1.3.1.
Anyhow, i thought in order to compile simple programs, you get into your \bin directory and type "javac <filename>.java" and then "java <filename> (without the extension) ?
it even says so in the documentation, but my javac.exe file is nowhere to be found
it even says to compile this way in the documentation. i even tried copying my OLD javac.exe to my NEW bin directory and got a version mismatch error.
thanks in advance, any and all help is much appreciated
