oracle.java.OracleDriver not found - class_path problem?

[achana chan]

Hi, I've used following Oracle connection on Ora8 and Ora9i and it has always worked for me:
myJavaProgram.java

import java.sql.*;
...
Connection myConnection = null;
Statement myStatement = null;
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver());
myConnection = DriverManager.getConnection
                        ("jdbc :-o	 racle:thin:@somesever:1521:somedb",
                         "user",
                         "pwd");
myConnection.setAutoCommit(false);
myStatement = novaConnection.createStatement();
myStatement.execute(... );
myConnection.commit();
myConnection.close();
myStatement.close();

But when I try to recompile the same code on Oracle 7.3.4 using an the command line class path

javac -verbose -classpath .:/opt/oracle/product/v473/jdbc/lib/classes111.zip:/path/to/other/java/stuff myJavaProgram.java

I get this compile time error message
[code]
myJavaProgram.java:206: class oracle.java.OracleDriver not found in type declaration
DriverManager.registerDriver(new Ooracle.jdbc.OracleDriver());
.............................................^
1 error
[code]

Using the verbose option, I found that javac expanded classes111.zip which included the DriverManager class.
What have I done wrong and how do I make it work?

THANKS !

I forgot to add:

We set the LD_CLASS_PATH to /opt/oracle/product/v734/jdbc/lib
