Error configuring 8i for BC4J support

Question

I'm trying to set up my 8i database for BC4J/JBO support and I am receiving error messages. My OS is Win 2000, Oracle DB is 8.1.6 and I have JDeveloper 3.0 and 3.1 installed.
Below is the command sequence I'm using and error message I am getting. Obviously, something is not set up correctly but I have no clue as to what it might be.
All suggestions gratefully accepted:
=====
1) This seems to work
C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.0\bin>setjboenv "c:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.0" 8i
Setting JDeveloper runtime environment to "c:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.0"
Setting JDK version 1.1 in "c:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.0\java"
Setting JBO runtime environment (Deployment is 8i)
=====
2) This fails:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1\bin>setjboenv "c:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1" 8i
Setting JDeveloper 1.2 runtime environment to "c:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1"
Files\Oracle\JDeveloper was unexpected at this time.
=====
3) In 3.0, fails with "can't find class" message:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.0\lib>loadjava -u bc4j/bc4j@localhost:1521:v8i -thin -v -r -grant SYS,PUBLIC xmlparserv2.jar

Answer 1

Blaise, thanks for the response. In my haste (and perhaps cos I was in the middle of a BC4J training class) I didn't explain the problem clearly in the topic, but you're correct and I want to deploy EJB objects to my 8.1.6 database.
Here's the result of your suggestion:
=====
C:\>cd c:\program files\oracle\jdeveloper 3.1\bin
C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1\bin>.\setjboenv "C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1" 8i
C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1\bin>call "C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1\bin\setvars" "C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1"
Setting JDeveloper 1.2 runtime environment to "C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1"
Setting JDK version 1.2 in "C:\Program Files\Oracle\JDeveloper 3.1\java1.2"
Setting JBO runtime environment (Deployment is 8i with ORACLE)
The input line is too long.
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
=====
so basically, I think I might need to deinstall JDev 3.1 and reinstall in a directory with a shorter path name.
What do you think?

Jeremy,
First, you only need to load the JBO archives into your 8i database if you want to deploy your BC4J application module to the database as an EJB or CORBA object. Otherwise you don't need to do anything special to your database to make it work with a BC4J application.
Second, if you have an 8.1.6 database, and you do want to deploy your application module to the database, you can only do so with JDeveloper 3.1 (for JDeveloper 3.0 you must deploy to 8.1.5).
I'm not sure why your second setjboenv is not working. Perhaps your path is set up in such a way that you are not calling the local copy of setjboenv.bat. To make sure, you could do .\setjboenv instead of just setjboenv.
