Hi,
I am trying to compile a java file that uses static methods of a jar file. I can't seem to get the java file to recognize that these are static methods of the jar file.
The jar is named FedExAPI.jar and is in /com/fedex/api/ relative to my java file. The java file imports com.fedex.api.*; which looks correct to me.

Thanks in advance - Dave
