Unfortunately JavaSoft changed quite a few things in JDK1.2beta4 that
had been consistent with every other JDK from 1.02 on.  As a result,
JBuilder cannot correctly determine the name of the JDK or the
classpath.  The former is a cosmetic problem, the latter just requires
manual intervention.

Configure the JDK as you would normally, creating a new JDK and
specifying a path to JAVA.EXE.  Ignore the unusual name for now.
Manually edit the CLASSPATH for the new JDK so that it reads
"c:\jdk1.2beta4\jre\lib\rt.jar" adjusted for your installation
directory.  Press OK and wait for the dependancy files to be built.

You can use this JDK without any difficulty, but you do get an unusual
name listed.  If you want to correct this, you can exit JBuilder and
manually edit the file c:\JBuilder2\bin\LIBRARY.INI by hand.  Replace
line with the offending name with the following:

[JDK_java version "1.2beta4"]
That should be enough to let you work with the beta.  We will have an
interim release of JBuilder available to address the problem for real
in the not too distant future.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
