Thank you for your reply. The issue has been solved.

Just another question, on Microsoft Windows computer, I have installed JDK and have set the environment variable JAVA_HOME:

(in Cygwin)
$ echo $JAVA_HOME
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_32

However, it seems "java" command is not from the JDK I installed, it is from c/Windows/system32/java. Why is that?

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.6-b01, mixed mode, sharing)

$ which java
/cygdrive/c/Windows/system32/java

So, on my computer, I have two "java" commands. Is this one(c/Windows/system32/java) a gift from Microsoft?

I am puzzled.

Thank you very much.
