[GridSim-users] GridSim Examples

[Ronnie F. <ron...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am new to GridSim, and trying to run through the examples. I am able to
compile the Example01.java, and I see a file Example01.class appear in the
directory. However when I try to run Example01 I get en error message. I
read the FAQ page that talks about my error, but I am still not able to run.
I have tried multiple things, but still no luck. Please help.

There is some ambiguity on the site about how to run the file:

On the FAQ page it says:

* to run type: java -cp %GRIDSIM%\jars\gridsim.jar;. gridsim.example01.Example1

 On the Readme file it says:

In Windows:       java -cp %GRIDSIM%\jars\gridsim.jar;.
gridsim\example01\Example1

I have tried both versions but I am still getting the error.

%GRIDSIM% for me = C:\eclipse\GridSim

What I have tried is:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\bin>javac -cp
C:\eclipse\GridSim\jars\gridsim.
jar;. C:\eclipse\GridSim\examples\gridsim\example01\Example1.java

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\bin>java -cp
C:\eclipse\GridSim\jars\gridsim.j
ar;. C:\eclipse\GridSim\examples\gridsim\example01\Example1

I have also tried:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\bin>java -cp
C:\eclipse\GridSim\jars\gridsim.j
ar;.
C:\eclipse\GridSim\examples\gridsim\example01\gridsim.example01.Example1

This is the directory that Example01.class is stored:
C:\eclipse\GridSim\examples\gridsim\example01

And the following is the error message I receive:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
C:\eclipse\GridSim\ex
amples\gridsim\example01\Example1
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:

Could not find the main class:
C:\eclipse\GridSim\examples\gridsim\example01\Exa
mple1.  Program will exit.

I have tried many things, but am unsure why it is not running. If you could
walk me through where I am going wrong it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
