configure: error: Can't find "javac" in your PATH

[JungMin]

I have installed the J2RE-SDK from Sun. At first if i typed ¨java¨ or ¨javac¨ it said that it wasnt in my path. So i searched on here and found a topic that solved that - I added a line to my ¨.bashrc¨. I logged in and out, now when i type ´java´ or ´javac´ at the command line they both work.

 

BUT, i am trying to compile a program.....but when i run ´./configure´ I get an error saying

 

¨configure: error: Can't find "javac" in your PATH¨

 

This is how it says to install it....

 

$ tar -xvjf iriverter-VER.tar.bz2

$ cd iriverter-VER

$ ./configure --with-swt=/path/to/swt.jar

$ make

# make install

 

I have searched everywhere on the net, but dont know what ´swt.jar´ is!!??!?!?!? The only one i can find is in my ´Azureus´ directory on my computer.

 

Any ideas??? This is what i am installing.....http://iriverter.sourceforge.net/index.shtml

Thanks

Rob

swt is not part of J2SDK, and has to be installed separately.

what do i have to do the get the ./configure to recognize that ´javac´ is indeed installed and in the path???

Great...thanks. I download the SWT file.

 

Now.....

Do I have to specify a link somewhere to the actual file ´javac´?? Even though when i type ´javac´ at the commandpromt it works, does there need to be an actual link in a file somewhere to /usr/java..../javac????
