Flex 2 SDK; Can't Build Examples

Question

I recently down loaded the Flex 2 (Flex_SDK_2) software.
After downloading it, it further required the down loading of an
JAVA SDK (I chose Java™ SE Development Kit 5 {jdkl.6.0_01}
from Sun based upon what I think you guys recommended).
I have included
“C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\bin” or
“C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\jre\bin” in
the system path.
However, when I try and build the examples using the provided
batch file which uses “.\bin\mxmlc” I get
Error: could not find JRE
Error: could not find Java 2 Runtime Environment.
I confirmed that the path was set properly by simply
executing “Java” or “Java-RMI” from the dos
prompt where the “mxmlc.exe” resides.
At the moment, I don’t know what to do next.
A point of clarification, it was my understanding that
“The free Flex Software Development Kit (SDK)” does not
have a 30-day trial period.

Answer 1

It turns out this was a syntax issue. I assumed “Ensure
that Java SDK is installed on the computer and that the
java_home/bin directory is defined in the system path.”,
meant
Set Path=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\bin;….
not
Set java_home=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01
