How to compile and execute this JAVA application in Ubuntu?

compiler-construction, hdfs, java, javac, ubuntu

Solution

If you do not want to use the compiler inside of NetBeans, then go to your terminal application, set your current directory to `src` and invoke

javac -cp .:../lib/utility.jar Hdfs.java

To run, you would do this:

java -cp .:../lib/utility.jar Hdfs

If you want to compile and run within NetBeans, see Jigar Joshi's answer.

Problem

There is a Hdfs.java inside src/hdfs and there is a utility jar file inside lib. What are the options I give when I compile the Hdfs.java using the utility jar? And how do I execute? I went through the examples here and I'm very confused.
