title: JCreator IDE: Program will compile but not run, works in command prompt
body: <p>Recently purchased a new computer, trying to resume developing Java. One of the IDEs I use, JCreator, has started spitting out errors at me. I uninstalled and reinstalled Java a few times on the new machine to get everything working.</p>
  
  <p>I have a syntactically correct program, compiles just fine, but whenever I try to run the program from within the IDE, it spits out an error message. It reads as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>--------------------Configuration: &lt;Default&gt;--------------------
  Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
         (to execute a class)
     or  java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
         (to execute a jar file)
  where options include:
  -d32      use a 32-bit data model if available
  -d64      use a 64-bit data model if available
  -server   to select the "server" VM
  -hotspot      is a synonym for the "server" VM  [deprecated]
                The default VM is server.
  
  -cp &lt;class search path of directories and zip/jar files&gt;
  -classpath &lt;class search path of directories and zip/jar files&gt;
                A ; separated list of directories, JAR archives,
                and ZIP archives to search for class files.
  -D&lt;name&gt;=&lt;value&gt;
                set a system property
  -verbose[:class|gc|jni]
                enable verbose output
  -version      print product version and exit
  -version:&lt;value&gt;
                require the specified version to run
  -showversion  print product version and continue
  -jre-restrict-search | -no-jre-restrict-search
                include/exclude user private JREs in the version search
  -? -help      print this help message
  -X            print help on non-standard options
  -ea[:&lt;packagename&gt;...|:&lt;classname&gt;]
  -enableassertions[:&lt;packagename&gt;...|:&lt;classname&gt;]
                enable assertions with specified granularity
  -da[:&lt;packagename&gt;...|:&lt;classname&gt;]
  -disableassertions[:&lt;packagename&gt;...|:&lt;classname&gt;]
                disable assertions with specified granularity
  -esa | -enablesystemassertions
                enable system assertions
  -dsa | -disablesystemassertions
                disable system assertions
  -agentlib:&lt;libname&gt;[=&lt;options&gt;]
                load native agent library &lt;libname&gt;, e.g. -agentlib:hprof
                see also, -agentlib:jdwp=help and -agentlib:hprof=help
  -agentpath:&lt;pathname&gt;[=&lt;options&gt;]
                load native agent library by full pathname
  -javaagent:&lt;jarpath&gt;[=&lt;options&gt;]
                load Java programming language agent, see java.lang.instrument
  -splash:&lt;imagepath&gt;
                show splash screen with specified image

  Process completed.

  <p>I am assuming this is merely instructions for how to hook up the runtime environment.</p>
  
  <p>The kicker is that all runtime settings under:</p>
  
  <p>Configure > Options > JDK Tools > Run Application</p>
  
  <p>are the exact same on my old machine which runs everything just fine.
  I know this has to be a JCreator problem because I can compile everything perfectly fine from command line and then run it.</p>
  
  <p>javac and java commands work in command line, just this one thing will not work in JCreator.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas on the best way to resolve this?</p>
