Hi Jean-Luis, 

I also do a lot of java work on Cygwin.  In addition to the answer Randall gave you, I would also encourage you to use the -classpath argument to the javac and java commands, rather than using the CLASSPATH environment variable.  This provides a more solid control the classpath used for any given application and will help to avoid clashes between different java applications (which may expect different classpath's).  I typically type the entire "java -classpath XXX MyMainClass" command into a short C-shell script so I don't need to re-type the command for repeated runs.

Good luck!
Alan Thompson

The path components are separated with a semicolon. The path elements themselves, if they're absolute paths, must begin with a driver letter, followed by a colon, followed by an absolute path name. If you construct your CLASSPATH this way, things should work.
