Classpath issue?

[thedosmann]

I have jdk installed..
Path Env var in windows set..

I have a .java file I'm trying to compile
path d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java

It calls a .class that is same dir -Monitor.class

I call javac with the following:

javac -classpath d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java

and get the following:
[CODE]
d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java:42: cannot find symbol
symbol : class Monitor
location: class bdd.search.EnginePrefs
Monitor monitor = null; // query and url monitor
^
d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java:257: cannot find symbol
symbol : class Monitor
location: class bdd.search.EnginePrefs
public Monitor getMonitor() {
^
Note: d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.
Note: d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.
2 errors
[\CODE]

Why can't it find Monitor class?

I'm sure this is a simple fix but I can't I've tried several combo's with no success.
I'll deal with the other issues later..just trying to figure out the path deal first.

Thanks

Have you got a package declaration at the top of the first file?

[thedosmann]

Sorry..Yes i do

package bdd.search;

It sounds like it is a problem with the java set up.

Review this information and come back if it still doesnt work:

Good luck :)

I was compiling other class files with no issue but wasn't using class ref that was in package..just java.lib.class file ref.
I found that by not using -cp I could get it to work....

javac d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java
or
javac \inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java

Both of the above work (watch what dir you make the call from)

javac -cp d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search d:\inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java
javac -cp \inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search \inetpub\wwwroot\bdd\search\EnginePrefs.java

does not work

Go figure!?
This is probably the path structure I'm using? Anways, I got it to compile.
