[Jsynthlib-devel] A newbie question

[Michael H. <pat...@ya...>]

Excuse me for asking this silly question but perhaps someone can help me with this. I am after all a newbie.

I am running Windows (all my other machines are LINUX so please excuse me for that bad start) I installed eclipse. I installed Java SDK. The windows path includes F:\Sun\SDK\jdk\bin.

I do not have a classpath set.

I checked out JsynthLib and it is now in F:\workspace\JsynthLib.

When I go to the JsynthLib directory, I can execute:

F:\workspace\JSynthLib>javac synthdrivers\KorgHawk800\KorgHawk800Device.java

F:\workspace\JSynthLib>

Although I get no output, it does not produce any error. Should there be success message?

Then, I go to execute:

F:\workspace\JSynthLib>java core\DeviceListWriter.java
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: core\DeviceListWriter
/java
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: core\DeviceListWriter.java
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
        at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(Unknown Source)
Could not find the main class: core\DeviceListWriter.java.  Program will exit.

F:\workspace\JSynthLib>

I am guessing that this is a classpath or some other simple error. Can someone suggest what I am doing wrong or should be doing?

Many thanks,

Mike.
