Abhinay, I've found I actually had two problems. The later one was while trying to get the sample to compile: --module-path will not tolerate a trailing "\" on the path. It doesn't reject it, it just makes it not work. My original problem turned out to be the fact that --module-path in a parm file requires "/", not "\", even on Windows. Again, not rejected, just doesn't work. Thanks for your help.
