Re: CLASSPATH revisited

[dawall@xxxxxxxxxx]

Let's go at it one step at a time and maybe we can find the problem.  After
starting qshell,

   Use -classpath on the java command to set the classpath.  For example,
      java   -classpath /daw/classes:/daw/lib/jt400.jar  test.SimpleProgram

   Note a colon separates the elements of the classpath and use a forward
   slash as the separator.  Also note I package qualify the program name
   since in my case the class containing main() is in the test package.

   Set the classpath environment variable.  For example,
      export CLASSPATH=/daw/classes:/daw/lib/jt400.jar
      java test.SimpleProgram

   Note colon and forward slash.  Also note CLASSPATH is uppercase.

   Try with .profile.  I haven't tried this but it should work.  Once
   inside qshell enter 'set' to see the values of the environment
   variables.  Make sure CLASSPATH is set.

I hope one of these helps you out.

Subject:  CLASSPATH revisited




Sorry, guys... I missed this the first time....

I have written a Java application (my first) from VisualAge for Java.  It
extends another class that I wrote.  I FTPed the .java files to our AS400
and compiled them successfully.

BTW, they are part of a package called package (the names have been changed
to protect the innocent).  The class I want to run is class2; it is an
extention of class1. (I'm using a little polymorphism to share code)

When I try to run it in QSH, it can't find the class2 class, even though I
compiled it. :-(

I created a directory called package and put both classes in there but to
no
avail.  I also changed my CLASSPATH in my .profile to point to both my
current directory (i.e. /home/myprofile) and the subdirectory package (i.e.
/home/myprofile/package) but still can't find the class.  I even did a
CRTJVAPGM (which finished ok) but I still can't make it happen...

What am I doing wrong???
