I thought this was it as I use jre (because it has "-cp"). however,
[summer@possum data]$ jikes -d ~/Classes/ F.java && jre F
[summer@possum data]$ jikes -d ~/Classes/ F.java && jre F
[summer@possum data]$ jikes -d ~/Classes/ F.java && jre F
[summer@possum data]$ pine [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Pine finished
[summer@possum data]$ java F
[summer@possum data]$ java -classpath ~/classes:$CLASSPATH F
[summer@possum data]$
Someone mentioned offline (please, all, keep discussion ON the list) that
it's possible to force garbage collection. My code has the necessary
statements to do that (two versions that I found).
