Java 2

Hi,

I've got a book on Java 2 which is focused on the JDK 1.3 (Sams teach yourself Java 2 in 24hours)

I'm actually using the most recent SDK however and it's confusing me a little bit. I'm sure once I get this hello world out of the way everything will be fine! :-D

Basically I am told to run 'javac' to compile the prog which doesn't seem to exist in the new version.

When running the program 'java' I get the error message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Helloworld

Any ideas? I'm guessing it's because I'm trying to run it through the interpreter before it's run through the compiler? Although I'm a complete newbie so just dismiss that as codswallop if you want

Cheers,

OK no worries it seems to be working OK in Netbeans which came with it...

Thanks,

Jim
