New to Xith, having problems

I’ve just started using Xith3D this week and I’ve been going through the installation guide. Well, I think I have Xith3D installed correctly and all of my path’s in order.

I tried out the cubetest example and it works perfectly so I’m assuming that all of the libraries have been put in the appropriate places.

The problem is that I can’t seem to run the HelloXith3D example. It appears to compile correctly and the class file is appearing in the correct subdirectory, but when I try to run it I’m getting a NoClassDefFoundError. It almost seems like it can’t find HelloXIth3D.class even though it looks like it’s in the right place.

I went ahead and took out the packages line from the file and compiled it at the root of the Xith3D directory to see if that would fix anything but I still get the same error.

I’m really scratching my head over this one because I haven’t had any problems running my java apps before and I seem to have followed the installation instructions verbatim, anyone have an idea as to what could possibly be wrong?

Could you post the full error details, stack trace etc?

Unfortunately I don’t think it will give you very much

C:\Xith3D\xith3d>java -cp libs/xith3d.jar:. org.xith3d.gsg.HelloXith3D
Exception in thread “main” java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/xith3d/gsg/HelloX

are you compiling that example yourself?

try:


java -cp libs/xith3d.jar:classes org.xith3d.gsg.HelloXith3D

NOTE: On windows replace the ‘:’ with a ‘;’ I think.

Check to see that the HelloXith3D class was indeed created in a subdirectory named classes.

It looks like there is a bug in the documentation.

Cheers,

Will.

Correct! That fixed it, I was really confused there for a while. Thanks!
