ClassPath question

[Rachel Glenn]

Suppose I have the following:

/mp/classes/player/musicplayer.class

and the current directory is set to /mp.

Why isn't the following invocation a valid way to run musicplayer.class ??

>> java -cp /mp/classes/player musicplayer

[Himai Minh]

Try this
>> java /mp/classes/player/musicplayer

If your main method is in musicplayer.java, java will look for it through the path you provide.
