NonStop Server for Java 5.1 Programmer's Reference

Suppose you want the Java runtime to find a class named Cool.class in the package

utility.myapp. If the path to that directory is: /java/MyClasses/utility/myapp, you

would set the class path so that it contains /java/MyClasses.

To run that application, you could use the following java command:

$java -classpath /java/MyClasses utility.myapp.Cool

Example: Setting the CLASSPATH Environment Variable

Using the same situation as in the preceding example, except that you want to set the CLASSPATH

environment variable so that the Java runtime can find the class named Cool.class, you would use

the following command to set and export the CLASSPATH environment variable and then run Java.

To run that application, you could use the following commands:

$ export CLASSPATH=/java/MyClasses

$ java utility.myapp.Cool

For further information about setting class path, see the documentation provided by Sun Microsystems

(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/solaris/classpath.html). Note that when applying that

documentation to the NonStop Server for Java 5.1, you should follow the instructions given for sh and

ksh instead of those for csh and tcsh. Instructions for the setenv and unsetenv commands do not

apply to the NonStop Server for Java 5.1.

JREHOME

The JREHOME shell variable is used by the Java runtime to determine where the core Java classes are

located. If you install NonStop Server for Java 5.1 in the standard location, you do not need to set up the

JREHOME shell variable because it has the default value of /usr/tandem/java/jre.

Note: If you are using NonStop Server for Java 5.1 version T2766H51^ABO or later, you

need not set the JREHOME variable because the Java classes will be located based on the

location of the Java executable of a given JDK installation.

If you install the NonStop Server for Java 5.1 in a location other than the /usr/tandem/java

directory, you must do the following:

Create a shell variable called JREHOME and set it to the location of the jre directory. For

example, if you installed the NonStop Server for Java 5.1 at /h/myjava instead of

/usr/tandem, do the following to create and set the JREHOME variable:

$ export JREHOME=/h/myjava/java/jre

You must create the JREHOME shell variable in each shell in which you plan to run java or one

of its tools. For this reason, it is a good idea to put a creation mechanism in the .profile file in

your home directory that is executed each time you log on to an OSS shell. See the Open System

Services User's Guide for information on how to set the path in your startup file.
