how to point JAVA_HOME to jdk?

843798Dec 18 2009 — edited Dec 18 2009
Trying to use Ant, and apparently one requirement is to have your java.home pointing to my jdk..

currently its pointing to my JRE so i've tried to set it programmatically like:
System.setProperty("java.home", "C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jdk1.6.0/");
it didnt work.
