URGENT: How to run a Java program from a different directory?

Hi.
How do I run a Java program from a directory that the file is not located in? So lets say im in c:\Java. But the file is in c:\Java\abc\efg\.
What would be the command to run the Java file from c:\Java.
I can't remember it and I need it asap.
Cheers.

If the class you are trying to run is MyApp.class, try
c:\Java\>java -cp abc\efg MyAppThe actual classpath you specify will depend on whether or not MyApp.class is in a package (I've assumed it isn't) and whether or not any 3rd party jars are involbed (I've assumed not).

The command arguments read as "Run the MyApp class using as a classpath abc\efg relative to here (c:\Java)".

How to run the java program from another directory?

Hi
Assumption:
data.java is in a package suncertify.db and place in a directory c:/code/suncertify/db/ directory
data.class file: is in c:/code/suncertify/db/ directory
current directory: c:/
How can execute the data.class directly in c:/ directory without changing directory to c:/code/ ?
Thanks in advance,
Adrian

Yes. You can use the -classpath and -sourcepath options to specify where to look for source files, and the -d option to specify where to generate the class files. Look up the usage of those options in the javac documentation:

How to run a java class from its package directory

Hi,
I hope someone can help me on the following ....
Let say I have a Test.java class with the package definition: "package com.ams.eai.mq.fileAdapter;". I compiled the class into the directory c:\myJava\client\com\ams\eai\mq\fileAdapter. I have c:\myJava\client specified in my classPath and Path. Why is it when I go to the mentioned directory and enter at the prompt >java Test, I get java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: test (wrong name: com/ams/eai/mq/fileAdapter/test).
What directory am I supposed to be in to run my Test class ? Is there some other path that I need to specify but didn't ?
Thanks for any help.

You have to type out the fully qualified class name:
java com.ams.eai.mq.fileAdapter.Test
Even if you had the entire dir structure, "c:\myJava\client\com\ams\eai\mq\fileAdapter" in your classpath you'd still have to fully qualify the name of the "Test" class. What if there was another class named "Test" in a different package in your CP? The VM would have no way of knowing which "Test.class" you'd want to run.

How to run a java program in another folder

Hello!
I want to run for example the java class file in the path ./sourcecode/javafile.class. It works fine if I do the following:
cd sourcecode
java javafile
but it cannot work if I do:
java sourcecode/java
The error it outputs is NoClassDefFoundError.
Can someone tell me how to run a java program in another folder
thanks a lot.

You need to specify the classpath using the -cp flag when running. so instead of
"java sourcecode/javafile"
Try
"java -cp sourcecode javafile"

How to run a java program via a batch file,which is called from a webserver

REM This batch file runs the Spider with the [-v] option.
REM Lines 51 through 54 are simple DOS commands..they call the Spider
REM The location of the Spider package is the important piece of information here...
REM a batch file has access to the whole computer where the server resides.
setlocal
set JDK=C:\j2sdk1.4.1_01
set PATH=%JDK%\bin;.;%PATH%
CLASSPATH=%JDK%\jre\lib\*.jar;.;%JDK%\jre\lib\ext\*.jar;.;%CLASSPATH%
java spiderpackage.EntryPoint -v
endlocal
I am trying to call this batch file from my web server but I am unable to capture the result.I tried to append the result to a file but It writes nothing to it.What should I do to proceed?

I am not entirely sure if this is analogous, but I once wrote a PHP script uner Linux that invokes java and returning the output. I found that it was necessary to pipe the output of the Java program from stderr to stdout in order to properly receive it in PHP. The command would be as follows:
java spiderpackage.EntryPoint -v 2>&1
The pipe syntax (2>&1) should be exactly the same under MSDOS. So add that, and then continue as normal (appending it to a file or whatever else you want to do). Hope that helps

How to run a java program without Java Compiler

I have a small project and I want share it with my friends but my friend'pc have not
Java compiler.
for example, I writen a application like YM, then 2cp can sent,receive messege. My cumputer run as Server, and my frien PC run as client.
How can my friend run it? or how to create an icon in dektop tu run a java program..??..
(sorry about my English but U still understand what i mean (:-:)) )

To run a program you don't need a Java compiler. Just the Java Runtime Engine. That can be downloaded from the Sun website and comes with an installer.
You could then turn your application into an executable jar file and start it somehow like jar myYM.
There is also software that packs a Java program into an executable file. I've never used that but one that comes to my mind is JexePack. It's for free if you can live with a copyright message popping up every time you start the program.

Running a java program from an icon

I want to run my program from an icon on my desktop. I have a .bat file that I've built a shortcut to and it works.MY GUI program does display and run when I click on the icon. The problem is that the DOS window also shows up behind my GUI.
Is there anyway to prevent the DOS window from showing? Or is there another way to run a Java program without resorting to a DOS command line or running it through FORTE or another IDD?

Chris's solution worked well, with one small problem. Once my GUI starts, it takes up the whole screen. Normally when I run it, it appears as a small window.
not a big problem, I can reduce it easily after it starts. But does anyone know a way to make it come up in the reduced size it norally comes up in when I run it from my IDE?

How to run a java program remotely

hi,
i have a simple hello-world java program on my windows machine.
is it possible to run this program remotely from a linux server?
any suggestions, links to suggestions will be helpful. thanks!

i think that would be a problem for me, so i will need to use some other approach. what i'm trying to do actually is that we have a university server which is set up so that students can have combination fo shell and cgi scripts in their home directory and with that, they can have web pages.
but students cannot use that server to run java applications. so to work around that, i was hoping that i can have my java application, and the database on my own windows machine, and be able to invoke the java program from the shell script on the linux server and once i have my ouptut, i can display that on the web page with CGI script.
is there any other practical approach that i can use to accomplish the above?

Let's say that the order of arguments is as below
1. Jar file name
2. Classpath
Your shell script would look like this
java -cp $CLASSPATH:$2 -jar $1 I am assuming that your jar file has the required main-class entry in its manifest. Note that $1...$9 represent the arguments to this shell script.
The same goes for a batch file
java -cp %CLASSPATH%;%2 -jar %1
