Hi
I have set the path for my jdk. But, i still have to put all my JAVA programs in the subfolder "BIN" for them to compile and execute correctly. If I run a JAVA program which is not stored in the subfolder "BIN", it does not work.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
What OS(including version) are you using, where did you set the path, what is the line that you used to set the path?
What is the error message you get when 'it does not work'?
The usual cause of directory related problems trying to run Java applications is an incorrect classpath setting. The classpath must be set to include all the directories that contain classes used by the application, and all jar files used - this includes the current directory.

I am using Windows XP. I made use of environmental variables PATH and CLASSPATH.
Both my PATH and CLASSPATH variables contain: c:\jdk1.4;c:\jdk1.4\bin
If i got put my java programs in the subfolder BIN, i got this error
noclassdeffoundexception
Previously you said it didn't work unless the class files were in the bin directory, now you say you get NoClassDefFoundException if they're in the bin directory (that is what you said isn't it?)...
Whatever, a NoClassDefFoundException means you have not included the specified class on the classpath.
<sigh> I can only repeat what I said before:In case it isn't clear, this includes the application's class directory too.Quote:
The classpath must be set to include all the directories that contain classes used by the application, and all jar files used - this includes the current directory.
It is not a good idea to put your Java classes in the JDK bin directory (or any other JDK directory).
