Java environment problems?
I have two classes in two different files: Card, and CardDriver (which tests Card). They're in the same folder. Card compiles okay, but when I try to compile CardDriver, I get a "cannot find symbol" error everywhere I've used the Card class. (However, it works just fine on the college computers. It seems to be my PC that's the problem.)
If I explicitly add both Card & CardDriver to a package, the error stops. My professor has suggested that it's the classpath variable on this machine, but that looks exactly the way she says it should.
Classpath:
"C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_01\lib\ext\QTJava.zip;."
Does anyone know how I can fix this?

When you compile, try adding the current directory to the classpath. For example, if you're in a Windows environment, use the following command:javac -cp .;%classpath% CardDriver.java~
Here's what I got when I tried that:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Java\Cards>javac -cp .;%cla
sspath% CardDriver.java
'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Java\Cards>java -cp .;%clas
spath% CardDriver.java
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: CardDriver/java

Your environment is not configured properly. Please install Java as per the instructions here:
[url=http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-windows.html]Installation Notes - Java SE 6 Microsoft Windows (32-bit)[/url]

I've installed the latest version of Java as per the installation notes. This included updating the PATH variable as suggested.
PATH now reads:
"%systemroot%\system32;%systemroot%;%systemroot%\system32\wbem;c:\php;C:\Program Files\MATLAB71\bin\win32;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin"
However, I still recieve the same error. Do you have any further suggestions that I could try?
