[Soot-list] building Soot in Eclipse -- javac not found

[Ondrej Lhotak]

Hello Soot people...

Matthew Dwyer is having the problem described below building Soot in
Eclipse, following the instructions at 
http://www.sable.mcgill.ca/soot/howto_soot_in_eclipse_with_svn.htm

Has anyone who builds Soot in Eclipse encountered this before?
Does anyone know whether the instructions at the above address
are up to date, and who wrote them?

Thanks.

Ondrej

Ondrej,

Here is a more specific diagnosis of the problem we are having  
building the
SVN trunk under eclipse.

It's hard for me to imagine that this isn't something silly we are  
doing, but we are
following the instructions exactly.   Note that this is happening on  
a windows installation.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
