Forte and setting up classpath

[iSeriesCodePoet]

I am new to java so be gentle on me...

I am trying to set up Forte for my java editor and I am unable to compile a program due to it not finding one of the imports I am doing. I think I have the classpath set up right (Win 2k). I have it set up as CLASSPATH .;c:\javaclass
The directory entered is where the import is. Do I have something set up wrong? I have not tried it in command line mode (not using Forte), I just thought of trying that.

Any help would be appreaciated... Mike Wills

Funny thing about IDEs is that they don't use the System CLASSPATH, they using explicitly set their own CLASSPATH. Check the Project Properties and make sure you have included the necessary libraries. Wushutwist

Nevermind I got it...should have asked my co-workers first. ;-)

What needs to be done is to "mount" the directory in Forte. That is done by going to File | Explorer. Then you can right click on Filesystems and mount a JAR or a Directory. Mike Wills
