Package lotus.domino does not exist

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Am am trying to work through the Using java in R5 course manual but am stuck on creating a java app to access domino data. the error im getting is on the import line and is as follows:

package lotus.domino does not exist

import lotus.domino.*; is the top line of the class file ?

the classpath environment variable is as follows:

.; C:\j2sdk1.4.2_08\lib\classes.zip; C:\Program Files\lotus\notes\notes.jar; C:\Program Files\lotus\notes\data\domino\java\ncso.jar;

This query has been posted in the R4 / R5 forums but I can’t find a solution. Ive just tried using eclipse to edit the Java rather than notepad but had no luck with that either even tho it allowed me to import the jar file… need help!

Ok it now works, I had the notes.jar before the ncso.jar in the CLASSPATH. However it now compiles but upon trying to run the Java I get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError! This is driving me nuts now

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError indicates the VM does not find the standard Java System libraries. Check your classpath again, make sure your Java\bin folder is included in there.

Java\Bin ? The classes are all in java\lib arn’t they ? I have the Java\bin in my class statement and ive been compiling and running normal java programs with no problem. Just connecting to a local notes db thats now giving me problems

Thanks again

Try adding .;c:\jdkfolder\bin;c:\Program File\lotus\notes;

to the PATH (not CLASSPATH)Environment Variable so that the O/S can find all the java and notes executables.

import lotus.domino.*;

public class Activity06 extends Frame implements WindowListener, Runnable {

NotesThread t;

static Label Label1;



public static void main(String args[]) {



	try {

		Activity06 t = new Activity06();

		NotesThread nt = new NotesThread(t);

		nt.start();



	} // end try

	catch (Exception e) {

		e.printStackTrace();

	}



} // end main method



public void run() {

	try {

		Session s = NotesFactory.createSession();

		System.out.println("User Name: " + s.getUserName());



	} // end try



	catch (Exception e) {

		e.printStackTrace();

	} // end catch



} // end Run Method





public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {System.exit(0);}

public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {}

public void windowClosed(WindowEvent e) {}

public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {}

public void windowIconified(WindowEvent e) {}

public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) {}

} // end class

You’ve got spaces in the classpath:

Open a CMD prompt.

Type “set classpath =.;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_08\lib\classes.zip;C:\Program Files\lotus\notes\notes.jar;C:\Program Files\lotus\notes\data\domino\java\ncso.jar;”

Try to run your code. Assuming you’re running your code from the CMD line

Type “javac C:\j2sdk1.4.2_08\lib\javac MyClass.java”.

Then type “java MyClass”.

You can also use the java -cp or java -classpath to specify a classpath at runtime (e.g., java -cp “.;./Test Code” MyClass).

And incidentally, you don’t need Notes.jar in the classpath if you’re accessing the server over CORBA/DIIOP.

hth,

Subject: FIXED

Dallas, thanks for the help. It turns out there was a space in my CLASS variable between the ; and next c:. Took this out and its now (at last) working!

Thanks to everybody who took the time to have a look
