Need help setting classpath to run JAXB

[Tony Brown]

Hi,
For some reason, I cannot compile the schema-derived JAXB classes I create with xjc. My computer can't seem to find java's binding classes even though I've tried to set the classpath all different ways.
I think it's because my classpath isn't set properly. It runs fine if I compile with ant.
Here's my attempt to add the classpath to the command line. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

 
C:\>javac -classpath c:\jwsdp-1.3\jaxb\lib\*.jar;c:\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\endorsed\*.jar;c:jwsdp-1.3\jwsdp-shared\lib\*.jar Main.java primer\po\*.java primer\po\impl\*.java

Here's a sample of the error message I get:

Main.java:142: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : class JAXBException
location: class Main
        throws JAXBException {
               ^
Main.java:37: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : class JAXBContext
location: class Main
            JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance( "primer.po" );

;c:jwsdp-1.3\jwsdp-shared\lib\*.jar

Looks like classpath syntax errors to me - for one thing *.jar doesn't work (see the tooldocs on setting CLASSPATH) and who knows what it thinks of "c:jwsdp"
Bite the Bullet - stick with ANT - you can edit and re-edit a preposterously long classpath until you get it right and then use it again and again.
