Stupid user question on rmic

Thread view:

I have the following directory tree structure and contents therein.

./class
`-- com
`-- project
`-- services
`-- lib
|-- Hello.class

As I read the docs on rmic, the following command line should result in the
creation of ./class/com/project/services/lib/Hello_Stub.class.

rmic -v1.2 -classpath class -d class com.project.services.lib.Hello

However, I get the following ClassNotFoundException

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.project.services.lib.Hello not found in

What bonehead thing am I not doing corectly?

Simple test, try by specifying absolute paths:

rmic -v1.2 -classpath /some/absolute/path/class -d
/some/absolute/path/class com.project.services.lib.Hello

Same result, ClassNotFoundException. However, if I change directory to the
"class" directory, and run the following command line it works fine.

rmic -v1.2 -classpath . -d . com.project.service.lib.Hello

I have tried absolute path, relative path, i.e. "./class", and rmic seems not
to use "-classpath' BUT, just on a lark, I tried the following command line
and it works.

CLASSPATH=./class rmic -v1.2 -d class com.project.services.lib.Hello

I assume rmic has a bug with option "-classpath"

Thanks for help, work around found and will be used.

I am using SuSE Linux, and it has someone's third party rmic command, which is
what I was running, not Sun's JDK rmic.

In short, Sun's rmic works as documented.

Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for the help
Joseph

If you use SDK1.5 you don't need to use rmic, javac does the lot
