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?
