Questions about Environment Variables
This discussion was created from comments split from: Android java issue.
Comments
I'm just returning to programming and have 2 questions regarding. I'm using Win 7 Pro 64. 1.Is it in Environment Variables? SIRUSCG stated Added C:\Program Files\java\jdk1.7_21\bin to my Path. Is it a new Path Statement or added to the existing Path. 2. If new can it be located at the of the Environment Variables? Thank you
I have split this comment into a separate question because it is unrelated to the previous post.
If you create a separate variable, you must add a reference to it to the main PATH variable. This may be the preferred option because it makes the path variables easier to read. This is how it is done:
A Variable can be unwrapped into another variable if its name is surrounded with percent signs. Separate entries must be separated by a semicolon.
Based on what you have said, I believe that the path was appended to the end of PATH directly.
I have done nothing just wanted to make sure I understand it properly, so %JAVA_HOME% is added to the end of the existing Path? Java_Home is added separately, correct? Thanks
Yes, that is correct. Make sure your variable names are case sensitive - I don't think that you have a misconception here, but I think it is worth mentioning because your previous comment may be misleading.
Thanks uridang
