Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFou

Post by rsamb001 »

Hello People,
I'm new to Java, and I'm having a hard time understanding some of the forum's explanations on this topic. Can someone please explain to me what I have to do to run my Java applications. I've been at it for a while, and I'm falling behind in my class. Can someone give me step by step instructions about what I'm supposed to do. Be as explicit as possible; state it as if I'd never used a computer before. Please, I'm starting to panic, and I don't know where else to get help.
Gratefully yours,
Robert

Robert,

the first steps are always a bit hard, but keep faithful. Java is not so complicated. I cannot give you a beginner's introduction to Java programming here, but would advise you to go to your local library and get a copy of Core Java 2, Vol. 1 by Cay Horstmann and Gary Cornell, published by Prentice-Hall. This is a very good introduction to beginners and they are using TextPad as main tool. As you post your question here, I assume you are not using an IDE as Eclipse, but TextPad.
