I've installed jdk-1_5_0_08-linux-i586.rpm and Tomcat.
Working through some initial test install programs, I am finding that I can't seem to compile .java files into classes.
For instance...
javac -classpath /usr/local/tomcat/common/lib/servlet.jar HelloWorld.java
as instructed fails with a
gij: unrecognized option -- `-classpath' Try `gij --help' for more information.
So then I notice there is no servlet.jar file, but instead a servlet-api.jar.. I change the command and it fails with the same problem. Trying the command without the -class and without the path fails with path errors. So it's sort of like this -classpath switch is either pathed wrong somewhere or is deprecated?
This is on a CentOS 3 server. Anybody run into this? Do you have a solution?
Thanks, John Hinton
John,
As a guess, how about --classpath?? You're showing -classpath.... I'm just guessing, don't program in Java...
