title: Java NoClassDefFoundError even when Jars in same folder
body: <p>I have created a simple Java program (1 java file that contains the main() ), and I've included all Jar files in the same directory as the .class file.  It is giving the NoClassDefFoundError message.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried updating the Classpath to point to the directory, and I've also set "-cp ." to suggest that it look in the same directory as the .class file.  However, the program still says it can't find the class def.</p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts on what I should do?</p>
