Java playing games with me

[Slater]

Before today, I would put in dos...
java <classname>

and the program would run.

Today, that no longer works and I have to type in
java -classpath . <classname>

this is for ALL my programs, written today and before today. Anyone know why this changed? I haven't updated Java or anything, and the version number when using "java -showversion" shows, appropriately, 1.5 (aka, 5.0)

I don't know why it would have changed, but you could add '.' to CLASSPATH.

EDIT: Unless you installed something Java related that messed up the CLASSPATH env var... I know Quicktime did this to me once.

QUICKTIME

I did just update that because Firefox and Quicktime were at war with eachother

QUICKTIME

argh...

[Mr. SmartyPants]

a number of things will mess up your classpath (happened to me before)

x__x its a pain to retype em all the time

[Slater]

so, is there an easy way I can fix it?

[Slater]

bumping because I still haven't been able to fix this problem, even after uninstalling and reinstalling JDK and JRE, and it's really getting annoying.

Hmm. Try googling for the "(windows version) current path variable". Last time I played with windows it was in autoexec.bat as a line that started with PATH= (IIRC).
