You do have to set your classpath. Here is how my classpath is set:

classpath = c:\sax2\sax2.jar;c:\xerces-1_1_2\xerces.jar

What I usually do is put product specific classpaths like this into a
separate little batch file, c.bat, and run them when I open a CMD window.
That way I don't have huge (and unreadable) classpath statement.

I'm using both command line tools and JBuilder Foundation. To set the
classpath in JBuilder, from the menu choose Project/Project Properties then
pick Paths at the top level tab and Required Libraries on the inner tab.
Press the button to Add a library, browsing to find the jar files. Again, I
find it best to associate this sort of classpath library with a particular
project.

Subject: Install path



Hi: I am new to this technology and have not been a DOS or Windows Admin..
As a result when it comes to setting up environment PATH I am not easy. My
question:

Setup;
Windows NT4.0
xerces 1.1.2
jdk1.2.1

I have downloaded and installed Xerces in my E: drive, top level. I need to
set my PATH as follows:

E:\xerces-1_1_2\xerces.jar

Does the same, also, have to be included in the CLASSPATH? I know that it
needs to be set at the System Property Window. I am reading the book "Java
and  XML" by Bret McLaughlin. Although the instructions seem clear enough I
just want to confirm. Thank you in advance for a response. JJD
