Windows System

The following software must be installed on your Windows system:

• Java Development Kit (JDK)

• Ant

• JDBC Type 4 Driver for NonStop SQL/MX

• Eclipse IDE

Java Development Kit (JDK)

The version of JDK installed on your system must be 1.5 or later.

If you already have JDK installed on your Windows system, check its version using the following

command:

Command Prompt> java –version

java version "1.5.0_05"

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_05-b05)

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_05-b05, mixed mode, sharing)

NOTE: The above output is for JDK 1.5.

If the java -version command returns an error:

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

set the PATH and JAVA_HOME variables using the following steps:

1. Right-click My Computer on your desktop and select Properties.

The System Properties window appears.

2. Click the Advanced tab.

3. Click Environment Variables.

A list of environment variables appears.

4. In the User Variables dialog box, check for the existence of PATH and JAVA_HOME variables.

If these variables are present, verify the following:

• The PATH variable includes the bin directory of <Java installation directory

on Windows>.

• The JAVA_HOME variable is set to <Java installation directory on Windows>.

If the PATH and JAVA_HOME variables exist, but do not contain <Java installation

directory on Windows>\bin and <Java installation directory on Windows>,

set them as explained below:

1. Add <Java installation directory on Windows>\bin to PATH, separated

by a semicolon, and <Java installation directory on Windows> to

JAVA_HOME.

For example: Add C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_05\bin to the PATH

variable and C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_05 to the JAVA_HOME variable.

2. Click OK.

3. Click Apply Changes.

If the PATH and JAVA_HOME variables do not exist, follow these steps:

1. Click New in the User Variables dialog box.

2. Enter the variable name as PATH and variable value as <Java installation

directory on Windows>\bin.
