Hi, I've read this about 5 times now and still can't get my head aroud what you are doing.
Can you draw us a "picture" of what directories hold what, what your classpath is, and what your javac command is. Personally I have always used the structure recommended in the tomcat documentation that involves an ant build script, this gets around a lot of classpath difficulties as it generates the path for you (and it could be quite lengthy with a STRUTS applicaton). Don't think that's your problem though.

I have a bean (Book.java)saved and compiled in my classes dir at "tomcat"\webapps\strutsShop\WEB_INF\classes In this folder also is BookAction.java which needs to be able to find this bean, and a locally saved copy of the struts.jar file I have edited struts-config.xml and all other files are ready and waiting but my problem is when I try to compile the BookAction.java file in my classes dir. The error I get is BookAction.java:27: cannot resolve symbol symbol : class Book location : class BookAction Book book = new Book(); _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
