[java-dev] OS X javac question

I think you're assuming that by using the -sourcepath variable, javac  
will look in your sourcepath for NN.java. If you specify where  
NN.java is by giving its absolute or relative path then you should be  
OK. The sourcepath argument is to specify additional sourcefiles, but  
you still have to specify a main one. If you only have one sourcefile  
then the sourcepath variable is redundant. It takes a little while to  
get used to the idea of how packages are organised in Java. The  
examples at the very end of the javac man page are quite useful.
