If you want to change the JDK that JBuilder uses to compile and run your projects, you can change the JDK definition inside JBuilder.

  1. Tools | Configure JDKs.
  2. Select "java 1.3.0-C" from the list.
  3. Click the "..." button next to the "JDK home path".
  4. Select the "home" directory for your JDK (e.g. "C:/jdk1.2.2").
  5. Click OK to choose the directory.
  6. Click OK to save the JDK change.

Now create a new project. This project will use your new JDK. You can verify this in the Project Properties.

Note: Do NOT modify the registry, the registry has nothing to do with JBuilder. Also, do not modify the JDK that JBuilder runs on. JBuilder 4 should always run on JDK 1.3, but your projects may run on other JDKs.

Finally, if you would like to be able to easily switch between JDK's in JBuilder, you can upgrade to JBuilder Professional or Enterprise which both feature JDK switching.
