English term (edited): the system user variable PATH

there is typo in the ST that doesn't matter for the intended audience but can easily throw the outsider off track; it should be

system user variable PATH - PATH is the name of a variable and by convention should be all capitals!

system user variable PATH = the environment variable called PATH + as defined for / belonging to the user SYSTEM

the variable PATH is a string variable, basically just plain text - PATH is simply a list of directory paths that will be used by default by the user SYSTEM when looking for executable files (JVM.DLL is one), so


"Add the full path of JVM.DLL (preferably hotspot or classic) to the system user variable PATH"
=>
"Ajoutez le chemin d'accès complet de JVM.DLL (..) à la variable PATH de l'utilisateur SYSTEM / Système"


[la variable PATH étant en fait une liste de chemins d'accès aux fichiers exécutables, cela revient à dire:
"Ajoutez le chemin d'accès complet de JVM.DLL (..) à la liste des chemins d'accès aux fichiers exécutables contenue dans la variable PATH de l'utilisateur SYSTEM / Système"]

Migrating from Microsoft Java Virtual Machine to Sun Java Virtual Machine
In PeopleTools release 8.21, you must have Sun’s Java Virtual Machine installed and set up to create the
C++ and COM APIs to connect to the JOLT layer.
To set up the COM and C++ APIs for Component Interfaces follow these steps:
1. 1. Install the Java Runtime Environment (1.3.1 or higher) on the client machine
2. 2. From the Control Panel, select System Properties, Advanced Tab, Environment Variables to set the
system environment variables.
3. 3. Add the full path of JVM.DLL (preferably hotspot or classic) to the system user variable path.
4. 4. Edit the system environment variable CLASSPATH to contain the full path of Extapi.jar as follows:
C:\WINNT\JAVA\Classes\Extapi.jar.
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B31274_01/psft/acrobat/pt848cpi-b...

notice C:\WINNT\JAVA\Classes\Extapi.jar.

"C:\WINNT\" indicates it's a Windows operating system that is used.

Pour moi, les deux traduisent PATH variable et donc c'est un contresens. La connaissance de Linux n'apporte rien ici...c'est juste du bon sens...
