java命令出错处理

今天在写一java程序时，javac通过，但java时报错，说是找不到ImageViewer类： java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError。当时想到的几种可能是 1.If you launch your program and get an error message complaining about a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError, then carefully check the name of the offending class.
2.If you get a complaint about welcome (with a lowercase w), then you should reissue the java Welcome command with an uppercase W. As always, case matters in Java.

3.If you get a complaint about Welcome/java, then you accidentally typed java Welcome.java. Reissue the command as java Welcome.
仔细检查不是以上情况之一。这时才想到会不会classpah出错了。检查后发现原来classpath中的.;不知什么时候被删了，导致了JVM找不到相关class文件。不要以为是在当前目录　下执行java,JVM就会在当前目录下查找class文件，JVM只会依据classpath中设置的路径去查找class文件。而.可以表示在当前目录查找。
