Java CLASSPATH help

Mr_Magpie · 2008-10-10 11:12:55

Does anybody know how to set the CLASSPATH variable for Java in OS X 10.5.5?? I can't compile a small program because it isn't set properly for me. I need to add a .jar file path into it. Cheers

You shouldn't use a global classpath. They should be used per application.

javac -cp abc.jar:. MyClass.java

Thanks a million. I've spent ages trying to figure this out. And to think the answer was so simple. I'd gotten that far just I forgot the ":." in between the files. Cheers
