Hi, I am really new with this JAVA.After i Downloaded the JDK6 updates 2. I start to installed and set the path on the C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_02\bin
I have made the source code from notepad named it as Example.java and put it in the folder C:\Javacode. I have compile the code using javac command but then i found the error message of :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Example
after i try to run the program...

C:\>cd javacode
C:\>JavaCode>javac Example.java
C:\>JavaCode>java Example
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Example
set classpath to C:\>JavaCode either in command line
set CLASSPATH=C:\javacode;%CLASSPATH%
or set Environment variable "CLASSPATH"
I wouldn't recommend setting the CLASSPATH variable... it's OK for now, but it'll become problematic in the long term... so IMHO you may as well form good habits upfront.
To compile:
C:\javacode>javac -d "." Example.java
To execute:
C:\javacode>java -classpath "." Example
Or as of java 1.5 you can shorten that to:
C:\javacode>java -cp "." Example
java -version
tells you which version of java you're running.
Cheers, Keith.
