I am very new to java
I just want to know when I complied a file say
javac class1.java
(I get the class1.class)
java class1
(throw the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError)
what this mean and how to solve this?
Thanks~

It means the class file is not found. It isn't in the directory you ran java from and it is not in your classpath.

On a windows system, on the command line type "set classpath=C:\whateverfolderFileisIn"
