processing.exe command line options

in General Discussion • Other • 1 years ago

Processing is not finding the correct JDK. I am getting the following error when launching processing:

I have a JDK on my machine; however, it is not my default instance of Java. I have tried to create a .bat file that points to the java version; however, it doesn't appear to look at my modified ENV:

SETLOCAL
SET CLASSPATH=C:\glassfish3\jdk\bin;%CLASSPATH%
SET PATH=C:\glassfish3\jdk\bin;%HOMEPATH%\Documents\jp\bin\processing\processing-1.5.1;%PATH%
cmd processing

Here is the version of Java that my ENV is pointed to:

C:\glassfish3\jdk\bin>.\java -version
java version "1.6.0_27"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_27-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.2-b06, mixed mode)

How else can I launch this?

Tnx,

Jon

The download area on the Processing website has a version that includes it's own version of Java, and one that doesn't, labelled "Without Java". You should download the first one ("with java"). Theoretically, if you use that version, it should use it's own Java, and you should be able to launch it like a regular app (no command line needed).

If I am not mistaken, I think it uses the environment variable JAVA_HOME to find the path to the JDK (not the JRE: it needs tools.jar).
My setting: JAVA_HOME=C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_25
