Starting a java class through a bat file

[Jerry Manner]

Hi

I have a bat file which I want to use to kick of a java class. The bat
file looks like this:

set domino=C:\runagent\NCSO.jar;c:\runagent\notes.jar;c:\runagent;.;c:
\lotus\notes

cd\

java.exe -classpath %domino%;. Java.RunAgent.src.runAgent
PAUSE

Each time I try to run the bat file I receive this error message:

C:\>java.exe -classpath C:\runagent\NCSO.jar;c:\runagent\notes.jar;
;c:\lotus\notes;. Java.RunAgent.src.runAgent
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Java/Run
Agent
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Java.RunAgent.src.runA

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Sourc
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(Unknown Source)

The strange thing is that when I use Eclipse to run the same java
class I don´t receive any error and the code of the class is running
without any problem. So the problem must be the code in the bat file.
Can someone tell me whats wrong with the bat file?

Any help will be appreciated

Regards

It is a trademark violation and *extremely* bad practice to name a top-level
package "Java" or any variant thereof.  DO NOT DO IT.

"src" is a pretty bad package name, too, unless the purpose of code in the
package is to deal with matters related to "src".  Even then, it's weird.

By convention, package names are spelled in all lower case.

By what evidence do we conclude that the OP's code does not have a 'package'
declaration?  The OP has provided us no code.  They should, of course..

We also don't know anything about the classes in the JARs, and what their
packages are.

To the OP:  Get rid of "Java" as a part of your package name.  It's illegal
and harmful to maintenance.  Give us enough information to answer your
question, such as a short, self-contained compilable example
<http://sscce.org>

The problem is in the part of your project that you did not show us.

HI

Excuse me for not given the full info. The whole project was in my
workspace folder. I just copied the project folder from their to the
Java folder( i created this folder myself).
In my project "Java" is not the package name. My package name is
runAgent. The class name is RunAgent.

Do you want the full project? How can I give you a self-contained
compilable example?

Regards

src is the folder name. I am using Eclipse 3.3.2 First I create
a¨project( RunAgent). Eclipse automatically creates a src folder. Then
I created the package ( runAgent) under this folder. In the package I
then created the class (RunAgent).

The java code runs correct in Eclipse but not through the batfile.

I have a bat file which I want to use to kick of a java class. The bat
file looks like this:

It is much simpler if you package your classes into a Jar. Then all
you need do is

myjar.jar

and you are off flying, no classpath fuss.

See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/association.html
to set up the association between *.jar and java.exe

 

[Roedy Green]

My package name is
runAgent. The class name is RunAgent.

see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/package.html
on how to choose a globally unique package name.

Correction, you have told it to run *class* 'Java.RunAgent.src.runAgent'
instead of class 'runAgent.RunAgent'.

Hi

I moved the class from the Java folder structure and placed it into
another folder.
I have chaged the bat file call to this:

set domino=C:\runagent\NCSO.jar;c:\runagent\notes.jar;c:\runagent;.;c:
\lotus\notes

cd\

java.exe -classpath %domino%;. lotus.domino.data.RunAgent
PAUSE

Now the code runs fine. It seems that I had my CLASSPATH and PATH
variable wrong. They were not pointing to the right location.

Thank you all for the time and help.

Kind Regards
