package

Posted by R.VENKATASUBRAMANIAN on December 22, 2000 at 6:26 AM

1. See the spelling mistake in "package"

2. put it in a directory called package1

3. come one directory previous to that

4. compile like javac mypackage\Test.java

5. Run it from there itself.

6. It will absolutely works inspite of classpath and all.

7. For this the most important thing is in CLASSPATH there must be one . in the CLASSPATH. That . denotes for the current directory. If you include that , then the VM will take the classpath from there itself. O.K.

ie. CLASSPATH=.;C:\JDK1.2.2\LIB\tools.jar

like that.
This is clearly because of the namespaces in the java.

Are you clear.

Thanx and Regards
