It looks to me as if the reason here is that cmlistener.class is being
passed to java.  Java does not take the extension.

The correct command is > java cmlistener
What is being issued is > java cmlistener.class

Since Java uses the dot as a path separator, it is looking for
cmlistener/class.class

As to why it is working in dos, I don't know that answer to that.

I'm curious.  Why do you want to invoke the Java VM with multiple class
files on the command line.  Only the first would get executed, I think, and
the rest would be treated as command line arguments (String args[]) to the
first.

I hope i'm not getting flamed for this one, but what am I missing? A 
command line argument is being expanded by bash even though it's escaped.

  /tibrv/src/examples/java# D:/jdk1.3/bin/java.exe \*
  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
cmlistener/class

"cmlistener.class" is the first filename in the directory.

Same thing if i'm using single quotes to escape. Note that java.exe does not
expand arguments itself; it works as expected from a DOS shell:

  D:\TIBCO\TIBRV\src\examples\java>java "*"
  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: *

"ls '*'" or "ls \*" works as expected ("ls: *: No such file or directory".)
