C:\JavaPractice\source\com\wickedlysmart\SayHello.java
C:\JavaPractice\source\com\wickedlysmart \TestSayHello.java


To build, from C:\JavaPractice\source:

javac -d ../classes com/wickedlysmart/SayHello.java

Then,

javac -d ../classes -classpath C:\JavaPractice\classes com/wickedlysmart/SayHelloTest.java

You can use -cp instead of -classpath

SayHelloTest.class will be created in the classes folder.
Then copy the SayHelloTest.class anywhere you like.


To execute from anywhere where the TestSayHello.class is in
the same folder as you:

java -classpath C:\JavaPractice\classes;. SayHelloTest

or,

java -cp C:\JavaPractice\classes;. SayHelloTest


Note that ; is the separator for Windows.
