Well, the command is "javac" with no space. So there's one error right
there.
Copy the commands and response from your screen directly (use copy-and
paste) so we can see exactly what is going on. Also, list all your
directories and files that you are trying to compile (should only be one
or two for a simple example), so we can make certain that you're typing
in the correct paths. Cat (type) the files to the screen too so we can
check your packages. Copy all this here with "cut and paste" don't
re-type it, so we can see exactly what's going on.
understand command prompt. Is there a conflict between configuring an
IDE and command prompt? I can't get java c command to compile,
although the -version prompt shows the version. I also have several
jres and jdks in Program files/ Java, is that fouling things?
jdk1.6.0_12 is configured for the IDE and also shows in the -version
prompt. Java Web Start will not run on jars I have created., although
downloaded JWS do. Do I need to configure a classpath fot using the
command line? I am 3 mos into this Thanks again
Yes, the classpath needs to be specified correctly. Print that to the
string (echo $CLASSPATH or whatever) and copy and paste it here, but if
"javac" runs and prints a version string, that part should be ok.
There's no conflicts created by (most) IDEs. Concentrate on your files
and the classpath they need, not the system files. Start without
packages if you have to.
