This has nothing to do with Java 3D. Is there anyone here using Forte/Netbeans? Per the recommendation of a Sun Engineer I'd like to try switching to Netbeans. However I find another "classpath" problem (sheesh... seems like a good part of our discussion used to be installation classpath problems). My understanding of proper packaging of a class: package com.mycompany.myproject; This has the classes of my project in the directory structure: /com/mycompany/myproject/*.class This works great in Kawa or at the command line. And the jar tool can be used easily to jar files together using: jar cmf0 manifest.txt Project.jar \com\mycompany\myproject\*.class However if you try and mount (in Forte/Netbeans) the root of your drive as a filesystem then Forte/Netbeans can't find your files. A workaround (suggested by a Sun Engineer) is to put everything under another directory like: /source/com/mycompany/myproject Then in Forte/Netbeans you can mount /source and everything works great. However having done this you now can no longer use the jar tool at the command line and also a program won't run from the command line (since the classpath is now incorrect). Trying to run an application via "javaw -jar Project.jar" will fail because of the extra directory. Any solutions? How is anyone else dealing with this issue? - John Wright Starfire Research =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
