How to officially set environment variables JAVA_HOME and PATH for J2SE vs JRE ?

G

Gianni Galore

Assume I have installed J2SE and a separate JRE.

How do I have to set officially the environment variables JAVA_HOME and which folder should
be put in PATH ?

Should I enter

JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\J2SEv1.6
or
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jre6


What about the PATH:

PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\J2SEv1.6\bin;......

or

PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin;.....

or

PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\J2SEv1.6\jre\bin;.....
