Java Packages

[ShitalJain]

Hi! Everybody,
I'm new to java. Please help me solve this problem:
I have one package named: pack in d:\
In "pack" I have two other package: " A" and "B".(d:\pack\A and d:\pack\B)
Package "A" consist of a file known as "Greet.java"
Package "B" consist of a file known as "TestGreet.java"
Greet.java:
package pack.A;
public class Greet{
public void disp()
{
System.out.println("In Greet Class!");
}
}


TestGreet.java:
package pack.B;
import pack.A.*;
public class TestGreet{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Greet G= new Greet();
G.disp();
}
}


I tried setting classpath to d:\
so files got compiled but not executed...
Please, let me know what can be done to execute it...
Regards,
Shital jain.

What happens when you execute them? Errors? If so, post the exact error message(copy/paste not paraphrasing)

[pbrockway2]

And tell us the command you use to run the program and location from where you run it (if you are using the command line), or what IDE you are using (if you are not).

Hi!
The execution went this way....

C:\>set classpath=d:\

C:\>d:

D:\>cd pack

D:\pack>javac a\Greet.java

D:\pack>javac b\TestGreet.java

D:\pack>java b\TestGreet
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: b\TestGreet

D:\pack>

simply using notepad editor and jdk1.6

[sunde887]

Cd all the way into the package and just type "java TestGreet"

[ShitalJain]

nothing is working...
I tried:
D:\pack>cd\

D:\>java TestGreet
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: TestGreet

D:\>cd pack

D:\pack>java TestGreet
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: TestGreet

D:\pack>cd B

D:\pack\B>java TestGreet
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: TestGreet

D:\pack\B>

Please let me knoe what exactly has to be tried...

Where is the .class file located?

[ShitalJain]

its there in B for TestGreet and A for Greet

[pbrockway2]

Try

D:\>dir pack\B
D:\>java -cp . pack.B.TestGreet

(The first command is just to check that TestGreet.class really does exist.) The classpath is specified here using the "-cp ." arguments. This is more flexible than setting an OS variable.

The java executable expects the name of the class which has the main() method. This is the full name of the class, ie including the package of which it is a part.

Someone else will hopefully help you soon. I must be too tired, I am unable to even replicate the errors(damn compilation error I am running into...hence the too tired part).

D:\>dir pack\B
