Error on importing a java external library

Question

here is my .java file and the directory which contains the external .jar files.

Now,on compilation on terminal(Ubuntu 16.04)

I get this error:-

package uk.co.caprica.vlcj.binding does not exist

here are my two import statements

import uk.co.caprica.vlcj.binding.LibVlc;
import uk.co.caprica.vlcj.runtime.RuntimeUtil;

I tried entering the folder name(full path) on my import statement ,but is still doesn't work.

I successfully compiled ,buit when I try to run the file I get main class not found error.

Compile command javac -cp ".:./lib/jna-3.5.2.jar/:lib/platform-3.5.2.jar/:lib/vlcj-3.8.0.jar" main.java

Run Command java -cp ".:./lib/jna-3.5.2.jar/:lib/platform-3.5.2.jar/:lib/vlcj-3.8.0.jar" main

Answer 1

If your command is the one you commented in Andres' answer, then your path is wrong. Try:

javac -cp ".:./lib/*" main.java
