The solution of " :!java -cp %:p:h Main" did not work out. I think this might be because my java files all have the following line: Package myjavafiles; as of yet the only way I've found to compile and run it from the terminal (and not from vim) is by being in the parent directory of myjavafiles and doing: javac myjavafiles/*.java java myjavafiles.Main I've found that I can specify the directory of the java files I want to compile in the "javac" command. But when the "java" command will only work when I'm in the directory that has the folder of java files. I came to this conclusion after doing the following in vim from myjavafiles directory: // succesful : cd .. : !javac myjavafiles/*.java : !java myjavafiles.Main // not successful : !javac *.java <---worked : !java Main <----did not work // suprisingly not successful : cd .. : !javac myjavafiles/*.java : !java ~/path/to/myjavafiles.Main Because of these tests I think that perhaps I need to change directories to compile. But I'm not sure how to get only the folder name "myjavafiles" instead of the whole path. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
