hi, i'm using the abstract class definition, and when compiling the abstract
class it's ok, but the problem is when compiling the subclass: i get the
following message:

Rect.java:9: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class GeoFigure
location: class figures.Rect
public class Rect extends GeoFigure
^
1 error

the abstract class is called: GeoFigure;
and the subclass is Rect

so how cn use the set classpath at command line, should it include the
directory where are located all the package files(the abstract class and
subclass .java files), or should it point at onel evel before the directory
that contains the package files?
thank's!

Suppose you have the class com.foo.Bar. The file Bar.class lives in the
/home/xyzzy/classes/com/foo directory. Set your classpath to include
the /home/xyzzy/classes directory.

thank's, nut know that i'm alwas gettin the same error message, know that
i'm trying to use the classpath instruction in console mode, as i'm using
SUN JDK, i compile and run my programs using this method!
so, i want to give the path to the compiler after compiling the main
class(abstract class) when compilng the subcalss that extends the abstract
one, but in console mode, i don't want to inclde it in the environnement
var!
i'm trying o use this difinition:
SET CLASPATH=.;[driveletter]\[Directoy1]\[Directoy2]\[Directoy]\[Directoy4]
and know that the Directoy5 conatins the abstract class defifniton(.java
file), and sure they have to be all iln the same directiory (directiory5)
thank's!
