I'm trying to use javac with the windows command prompt, but it doesn't work.

Question

After adding the directory "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_25\bin\" to the end of the environment path variable, the java command works fine, but using javac gives me the error: 'javac' is not recognized as a internal or external command
