installing plugin

[Hohnen, Ramona (Stud. FHML / Alumni)]

Hello,

I think, it is a very basic question, but I tried a lot of thinks and it doesn't work.
I want to add the plugin "Colocalization_Indices.java". I downloaded it into the plugin folder of imagej.

After trying to add it via compile and run, I got this error:

unable to find the javac compiler, which comes with the windows and linux version of imageJ that include java in the imageJ/jre folder.
java.home: C:\Program files\java\jre6

I already downloaded the most recent version of imagej, including Java for windows.

Does anyone have an idea, how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance

  Try downloading the JDK not the JRE and see if that helps.

The JDK (Java Development Kit) should include the compiler
whereas the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) normally comes without
the compiler and just the tools to run java programs.

Cheers
Robert

Issues like these were the reason we started this distribution called Fiji
that bundles ImageJ, Java and a number of useful plugins. You can find it
here:

        http://fiji.sc/

It is a big download! But it comes with everything you'll need to run your
plugin. After unpacking and executing Fiji, Just click on File>New>Script,
open your .java file and run it with Run>Run.

Ciao,
Johannes
