Jikes, unlike javac, doesn't come with its own set of core classes;
you have to tell it where they are. The error message below says that
Jikes can't find the java.util package, and it lists the only jar
files you've given it to look in, neither of which should contain
java.util. The file rt.jar is the one you need.
If the two Swing jar files are indeed needed -- i.e., if you're going
to use this particular version of Swing, rather than the version that
comes with the JDK, and if you actually want to use it in the first
place, since Jess doesn't use Swing at all -- then your classpath
should be
.;/cygdrive/c/jdk1.2.2/jre/lib/rt.jar;/cygdrive/c/jdk1.2.2/swing1.1.1/swingall.jar;/cygdrive/c/jdk1.2.2/swing1.1.1/windows.jar
If you don't actually need to use this special Swing version, then you
can leave off the last two entries. The dot, meaning "right here,
wherever I am" and the rt.jar entry, are the two important ones.
