classLoader

[davikokar]

Hallo,

I am trying to load dinamically a .class file, but I don't understand where I do have to place my file in order to be loaded. By using th simple code here below I keep on getting a not found exception. The myClass name should contain also the namespace of myClass? should it be something like "xy.myorg.myClass" ? I tried also that by the class was not found. Where exactly the classloader is looking for it?

thanks

public class MainClass 
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        ClassLoader classLoader = MainClass.class.getClassLoader();
        try 
        {
            Class aClass = classLoader.loadClass("myClass");
            System.out.println("aClass.getName() = " + aClass.getName());
        }
        catch (ClassNotFoundException e) 
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

I could be wrong about this but...

The class would need to be somewhere in your classpath. For windows XP, you can check your classpath by typing "set" at a command prompt. The CLASSPATH variable should tell you the locations.

I added to my variable classpath the location of the .class file, but invane: it is not found.
