Hi all,

My application is something like this:

I have two files:
c:\test\a\b\JarTest.class
c:\test\c\d\JarMan.class

The java code is as follows:

JarTest.java
------------
package a.b;

import c.d.JarMan;

public class JarTest{
    public static void main(String asd[]){
        JarMan jm    =    new JarMan();
        jm.testFunc();
    }
}

JarMan.java
------------

package c.d;

public class JarMan{
    private int a;

    public void testFunc(){
        System.out.println("print:: "+this.a);
    }
}

Now I created a jar file out of c/d/JarMan.class with the correct
directory structure called jarman.jar.

And created an exceutable jar file out of a/b/JarTest.class called
jartest.jar.

The manifest file in jartest.jar looks like this:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.4.2_04 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: a.b.JarTest

Now from within the c:\test folder I try to execute jartest.jar and
this is what happens:

C:\test>java -classpath c:\test\jarman.jar; -jar jartest.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: c/d/JarMan
       at a.b.JarTest.main(JarTest.java:7)

Strange isnt it?

Now when I extract the contents of jartest.jar and try it works:
C:\test>java -classpath c:\test\jarman.jar; a/b/JarTest
print:: 0

My head is spinning with this problem :-(

Help me out!!!
Thanks in advance.

regards,
ASD
