I never said anything about PATH! I said that the plugin had to be
created from a virgin build with patchset 6 and that you have to make
sure to remove any previous installation before installing patchset 6.
j2sdk1.3.1/ext/plugin/oji_plugin/src/motif/navig5/JavaVM5.cpp contains
the code for your edification. It uses CLASSPATH to figure out the
directories where java_vm might be hiding. It then passes an exact path
to exec. No PATH involved.
