Thanks for the info

I can't get the damn thing to compile do you have nay idea what I'm doing wrong?

I get this:

"
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\limewire\core>set JAVA_HOME=D:\Programs\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1_03


C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\limewire\core>set CLASSPATH=.;../gui/lib/collections.jar;../g
ui/lib/xerces.jar;../gui/lib/MRJToolkitStubs.jar

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\limewire\core>
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\limewire\core>ant
Buildfile: build.xml

init:

core:
[javac] Modern compiler is not available - using classic compiler
[javac] Compiling 148 source files to C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\limewire\core

BUILD FAILED

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\limewire\core\build.xml:43: Cannot use classic compiler, as i
t is not available A common solution is to set the environment variable JAVA_HOM
E to your jdk directory.

Total time: 2 seconds"

I downloaded the JDK and the JRE whatever they are (JDK was huge like 50 megs). When I set my JAVA_HOME to the JRE path (D:\Programs\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1_03) I get hte above message if I set it to the jdk path (D:\Programs\JavaSoft\jdk1.3.1_03) It says bad command or file name when it tries to run ant. I'm lost.
