without any warning today I was loading a Bluetooth example software source from a location where I have always stored same on my hard drive , and I went to compile and run the source as I have done many times in the last week or so , and the IDE suddenly and unexpectedly asked me to set the path for the JAVAC.EXE and ANDROID.JAR files , I found only one instance of javac.exe but two instances of the dot jar file and not where I expected to find it ,
the IDE wont accept the path , I supply , (either of the two I have on my drive) it says INVALID PATH for one or other of the two paths I supply
here are the various paths I find for the dot EXE and dot JAR files respectively on my drive.
JAVAC.EXE PATH
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_45\bin\javac.exe 30/12/2013 16kb
ANDROID.JAR PATH TWO OPTIONS
C:\ANDROID\android-sdk\extras\google\gcm\gcm-client\lib ANDROID.JAR 30/12/2013 4471 kb
C:\ANDROID\android-sdk\platforms\android-19 ANDROID.JAR 30/12/2013 22230 kb
POSSIBLE OTHER LIBS
C:\Program Files (x86)\Anywhere Software\Basic4android\Libraries
I have not had any issues with my hard drive the only changes made to the IDE is that I (few days ago) downloaded and installed the latest BEta version V35 of B4A as advised by email , it installed without any issue and did not ask me to update the paths following install ...
any ideas what has gone wrong with my setup and how to get out of this Error Path with IDE and the paths to which I am pointing for Android.JAR and javac.exe files , I dont know which one but one is faulty as I reckon the third path is optional
