Hi :)
Are you sure your java program has right syntax. I mean error type which you've got java specific.

Try the same for code which is below

-----------------------------------

class Hello {
public static void main(String [] args) {

System.out.println("Hello");
}

}

-----------------------------------

save this as Hello.java file in any folder(for example in D:/JavaProject), then from the command promt go to that folder ---D:/JavaProject> --- and use your javac command.

Think, this will work.

Write if any problems (or if it works :) )

Best,
Anna

.................................................. ....

programming syntax were correct.

I tried ur method.
compilation was done correctly
(d:\java project> javac hello.java)
errors occurs during execution
as i type
d:\java project>java hello
follwing errors appeared::::::

exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassdefFoundError : hello<wrong name : hello>

at java.lang.classloader...............
...............
................

what should i do now????

ur advice is heartly accepted??????

Notice that your classname starts with capital "H". As I've understood you try to call your class with "h".

Try the following call:

d:\java project>java Hello
