JAVA_HOME and JDK

807600Oct 20 2007 — edited Oct 20 2007

Hi,

I installed the Java SDK a while ago, how do I check that I have the JDK with it? The reason why I ask is because I want to set the JAVA_HOME variable and not sure where I must map it to? When I installed the SDK it installed everything under C:\Sun\SDK\. I am running Windows XP.

What are environmental variables used for? I am a C# developer and I am new to this Java setup.

Regards
Brendan
