re: function classpath not found (cause?)

[Jim McNamara]

hi-   I just received my derby text book an hour ago.  I was playing around with the echo commands it had for windows dos and noticed that even though I had set an environment variable for my eclipse directory (I followed same procedure laid out in the book for the demo application that comes with derby) in the CLASSPATH when I do an echo it skips over that entry.  I suspect if I can figure out why in the world it would do that I may fix the problem.   this makes me angry.  i can screw up enough on my own without this.   I have to go to work now.  my hobby will have to wait a bit. if anyone knows why, please help. thanks - jim   screen prints –   values in my environment variable c:\derby\lib\derbyclient.jar;c:\derby\lib\derbytools.jar;c:\derby\frameworks\NetworkServer\bin;c:\eclipse\workspace\budgetcalc\bcalc2;c:\swtjasperviewer-1.0.3\swtjasperviewer-1.0.3.jar;   console window showing an echo – C:\jadeCheckBook>echo c:\derby\lib\derbyclient.jar;c:\derby\lib\derbytools.jar;c :\derby\frameworks\NetworkServer\bin;c:\swtjasperviewer-1.0.3\swtjasperviewer-1. 0.3.jar; c:\derby\lib\derbyclient.jar;c:\derby\lib\derbytools.jar;c:\derby\frameworks\Net workServer\bin;c:\swtjasperviewer-1.0.3\swtjasperviewer-1.0.3.jar;   batch file echo command – echo %CLASSPATH%
