I need to know where JDK is located on my machine.
On running Java -version in cmd, it shows the version as ‘1.6.xx’.
To find the location of this SDK on my machine I tried using echo %JAVA_HOME% but it is only showing ‘JAVA_HOME’ (as there is no ‘JAVA_PATH’ var set in my environment variables).

If you are using Linux/Unix/Mac OS X:
Try this:
$ which java
Should output the exact location.
After that, you can set JAVA_HOME environment variable yourself.
In my computer (Mac OS X – Snow Leopard):
$ which java /usr/bin/java $ ls -l /usr/bin/java lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 74 Nov 7 07:59 /usr/bin/java -> /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Commands/java
If you are using Windows:
c:> for %i in (java.exe) do @echo. %~$PATH:i
