Re: Visual Age for Java 3.0 install problems

[Jim Mason <JEMason@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi..

A couple of ideas that might help IF it is related to the size of the
classpath string that
VisualAge tries to set....

1 install VisualAge into a custom directory, not the default with the long
names
   (I install into a simple directory 'vj' that gives me short path names
and
    that has worked well in Windows).

2 in autoexec.bat try using the SUBST command to map a long path name
    to a logical drive letter eg:

        SUBST  x:    c:\myReallyLong\PathToSomething...

   this remaps all sub directories to a shorter length....


           c:\myReallyLong\PathToSomething\aSubDirectory

        becomes:

        x:\aSubDirectory

Either option should allow you to install IF the problem is the length of 
the generated classpath .....
