I am using ant script for building. whenevr i tried to build using ant it is giving an error like this(Previously in jdk 1.4 it same code was working fine.)


C:\san>ant
Buildfile: build.xml

clean:
   [delete] Deleting directory C:\san\classes

Check your JaAVA_HOME and if you still have jdk1.4. 48 means jdk1.4 while 49 means 1.5. for some reason it is still looking to jdk1.4

Yes I have checked for that. My JAVA_HOME refers to jdk 1.5
ok can you do a java -version and see what it returns?
Put

%JAVA_HOME%\bin

as the first entry in your PATH variable
java -version returns 1.5
What does

javac

print?
And just for the record, what does

echo %JAVA_HOME%

print?
Both java and javac are refering to jdk 1.5
sounds like you may not have uninstalled them. have you checked that they were removed completely?
Somehow Ant tries to find 1.4 libs. Which version os Ant are you using? Do you have the one coming with NetBeans?
Try

ant -Dbuild.compiler=javac1.5

>> Just delete all java.exe and javaw.exe from your windows directory (and subdirectories).

Might not solve the problem. Have you tried CEHJ's (%JAVA_HOME%\bin at the start of PATH).
Just for the sake of completeness - also check the current version in your Windows registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment
Sledge-hammer solution :) you still need to learn how to manage different JREs installed on your machine. Deleting the others is not the right way of learning this.
