Executing Java

[JUAN VIDAL_1]

Hi, I get following exception:
/opt/java1.5/bin/java /home/user/Hello
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: /home/user/Hello


this is my first program:
-------------------------------------------
class Hello {
public static void main (String[] arguments) {
System.out.println("Testing Java...\n");
}
}
-------------------------------------------

I compiled it with:

/opt/java1.5/bin/javac /home/user/Hello.java

There were no compilation errors.

HP-UX 11.11

Is this related to CLASSPATH?
In that case, how to set it properly?

Thanks,

Juan.

Shalom,

This is pretty simple code.

Are you up to date on OS patches for java and java version from http://www.hp.com/go/java

The argument to /opt/java1.5/bin/java is not supposed to be a filename, but a class name.

In other words, "/opt/java1.5/bin/java /home/user/Hello" tries to find from the CLASSPATH directories a .java file that contains a class declaration like:

class /home/user/Hello {
[...]

Of course your program is not written like that: "class Hello" is not the same as "class /home/user/Hello". The latter would be a strange name for the main class of a program.

So, assuming the CLASSPATH has not been set, please try this:

cd /home/user
/opt/java1.5/bin/java Hello

Or, if you want to run your example program from another directory:

cd /
export CLASSPATH=/home/user
/opt/java1.5/bin/java Hello

Hi Matti,

I performed:

$ cd /home/user
$ /opt/java1.5/bin/java Hello

more hello.java
import java.util.*;
class hello {
public static void main(String args[]) {
System.out.print("Hola\n");
}
}

/opt/java1.5/bin/javac hello.java
/opt/java1.5/bin/javah -jni hello

That WORKED.

THANKS.

JUAN.
