Re: classpath question

I'll take a guess - a JAR file is a container for classes - if you had an actual class object, maybe that would be found.

As I say, a WAG!

im using Scott's POI to write excel documents. I placed the jar files in
the ifs "java" folder. I modified the classpath as follows:

/QIBM/UserData/Java400/ext/:/java/poi3.1/

when i try executing my code, i get a class not found error. I modified
the classpath as follows again:

/QIBM/UserData/Java400/ext/:/java/poi3.1/poi3.1.jar

and now it works.

Im not sure why i have to specify the jar file in the classpath. Why
doesnt it work just specifying the folder the jars are contained in.
