I believe I have a problem with my Jar file build.

Question

Hi, there. New to Java/JavaFX. Testing language features. Operating System: Windows 7; java version 1.7.0_03; javafx version 2.0.3.
This is a simple test with 2 classes: Test1.class resides in base directory "MyJavaFX"; TextFileLoader.class resides in sub-directory "inout" of "MyJavaFX"(i.e. MyJavaFX\inout).
Test1.class has an import statement "import inout.TextFileLoader;" TextFileLoader.class has a package statement "package inout;"
Both classes compile without problems and jar file is created using Ant tasks.
Within "MyJavaFX" as my current directory, When running Application Test1 (java -jar Test1.jar)
getting error "ClassNotFoundException: inout.TextFileLoader".
I believe it has to do with how Test1.jar file is built. I believe line 4 should say "inout/TextFileLoader.class"
instead of just the simple class name but I can't get my Ant task to set it up that way.
This is "Test1.jar":
META-INF/
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
Test1.class
TextFileLoader.class
com/
com/javafx/
com/javafx/main/
com/javafx/main/Main$1.class
com/javafx/main/Main.class
com/javafx/main/NoJavaFXFallback.class
This is my "build.xml" file:
<project name="JavaFxTest" default="default" basedir="."
     xmlns:fx="javafx:com.sun.javafx.tools.ant">
<target name="default">
     <taskdef resource="com/sun/javafx/tools/ant/antlib.xml"
     uri="javafx:com.sun.javafx.tools.ant"
     classpath="C:/Program Files/Oracle/JavaFX 2.0 SDK/tools/ant-javafx.jar"/>
     <fx:application id="Test1"
     name="Java Test Program"
     mainclass="Test1"/>
     <fx:resources id="appRes">
     <fx:fileset dir="C:/Program Files/Oracle/JavaFX 2.0 Runtime/lib"/>
     </fx:resources>
     <fx:jar destfile="C:/MyjavaFX/Test1.jar">
     <fx:application refid="Test1"/>
     <fx:resources refid="appRes"/>
     <fileset dir="." includes="Test1.class"/>
     <fileset dir="inout" includes="TextFileLoader.class"/>
     </fx:jar>
</target>
</project>

if javaw fails to launch the VM then a dialog should be displayed with an error. The first time I launch an application with javaw (after installing the JVM on a new machine it takes a long time for it to happen. have you tried from the command line >javaw -jar D.jar? I'm wondering if the installation of java went well on your machine. It's supposed to set up things correctly. did you install a new version of java over an existing one? maybe there was a java plugin previously installed on the machine before you installed j2sdk.
