Yes you are right ../.. are subdirectories
in my classpth I've set
/var/tomcat4/webapps/WEB-INF/classes.
Now whole path for .class file is
/var/tomcat4/webapps/WEB-INF/classes/abc/utils/xyz.class
I am calling this xyz.class from test.class
these classes are in package abc.utils so in classpath I am only specifying till classes.
but when I am doing java
test then I am getting exception in main NOclassDef found(/abc/utils/xyz)
FYI I am doing java test from same folder where this .class files are.
I hope I am clear.
thanks
