hi ,
I am very much new to struts ..so i have a problem compiling and building struts application .. i have followed the standard directory structure ..buti get the errors below during compilation this is the classpath i have set in the environment variable section (windows xp)
C:\j2sdk1.4.\jre\lib\rt.jar;.;C:\ProgramFiles\Tomc at\common\lib\servlet.jar;.;C:\struts\jakarta-struts-1.1-b2\lib\struts.jar;.;C:\Program Files\Tomcat\webapps\MiniHr\WEB-INF\classes

and i use the following .bat file on the cmd line to complie

set cp = C:\Program Files\Tomcat\webapps\MiniHr\WEB-INF\lib\struts.jar
set cp =%cp%;C:\Program Files\Tomcat\common\lib\servlet.jar
set classpath=%classpath%;%cp%
javac -d ..\..\..\classes *.java

This is what i get at the cmd window
