my java clascompile but not run

i wrote a java class.and i try to compile and run it.
but it compile not run.it gives class not found error.i

i set the classpath to the java "bin".

i set the classpath to the java "bin".

The classpath is used to find the Java classes -- not to find the java compiler or JVM. So, unless you happen to also placed your compiled classfiles in the bin directory, this is wrong.

Aruna,

As Henry pointed , you should not place classes under bin.Check out this common issues

no i didn't put my class files in bin director.
my class is in Desktop .I compiled it .It compiles with no errors.
but when i am goging to run it says classNoFound error.

I already have set the classpath to the java bin directory and JAVA_HOME to the JDK folder.
what is the reason for this error?

The PATH should include the Java bin directory, and not the CLASSPATH. That should be the directory where your class files are located (or at least the current directory, .)

Thanks Rob
Finaly it works.I set the classpath tothe current Directory.
