How to compile servlet with Edit Plus?
Hi
I am writing a Java servlet in EditPlus and am wondering how to include the servlet.jar file so that EditPlus knows where the javax.servlet.*, etc classes are. I suppose this is an EditPlus specific question so sorry about that but I didn't know who else to ask other than EditPlus themselves of course and I think I have tried that once.
I have read replies on this forum about changing the classpath but I dont think that that is what I need to do here and if it is I dont know what I should be writing as I am not using the jdk.
If anyone can help me at all I would be very grateful.
Thanks

You can compile java files! I have done it lots of times. All you do is download the Java 2 sdk and then link the java.bat and javac.bat files to EditPlus and it works fine. All I want to do is now link some more classes to it, ie the servlet.jar file.
Anyone know how to do that please?
Thanks
Yes, I have also compiled Java files from EditPlus. Using the facilities for configuring 'User Tools' in EditPlus.
EditPlus runts programs(javac in the current context) in a separate environment(separate DOS command).
I just compiled, from EditPlus, some Java file of mine that uses something from the servlet API. It compiled just fine. I did not do any classpath or other setup on classpath lines inside EditPlus. I guess, EditPlus inherits the existing CLASSPATH(all environment settings in fact) setting from your environment and thereafter aslo passes it along to the separate command prompt it opens to run user configured tools to run.
