Hello Ashley,
So I ran the code you suggested and
System.out.println("JAVA_HOME: " + System.getenv("JAVA_HOME"));
System.out.println("PATH: " + System.getenv("JAVA_HOME"));
Prints the right path to the JDK. So, would you suggest me to go into the
ANT CompilerAdapterFactory.java source file and modify the
"System.getProperty("java.home")" to System.getenv("JAVA_HOME") ?
I can't think of anything else in order to solve this.
Derek, when you told me to do this: "AntClassLoader ACL = new
AntClassLoader(antproject, path, true);" what else am I supposed to do??
Just set the AntClassLoader to the ant project, path = null, and true? Am I
supposed to use ACL for anything else?
Cheers,
