Geany on XP

**wierdal** · 05-03-2009, 06:27 PM

Hey all.

Quick qs. Trying to get geany to work on xp

installs fine but I get an error when compiling

Java Code:

"javac" "test.java" (in directory: C:\Documents and Settings\Wierdal\Desktop)

I have JDK installed as I can compile with textpad and as far as I know Geany installs GTK so Im not too sure whats wrong with it.

Any ideas anyone ??

Cheers
Wierdal

What error do you see? Also, for the ignorant, what's Geany?

**wierdal** · 05-03-2009, 07:04 PM

teh error is

Java Code:

17:19:49: Process failed (Create process failed)

when I compile i get the line mentioned in my first post.

Geany is a text editor, think it was made for Linux, but been told it works for windos

Are you sure that all the related setting in the text editor are correct, if any? May be the java installation path...

Im not sure tbh, When I was using Ubuntu, I just installed and it worked fine, Had JDK installed before hand, same as now, except now it doesnt work lol
