class CommandLineArguments{


public static void main (String args[]){


System.out.println("args.length = " + args.length);


System.out.println("args[0] = " + args[0]);


System.out.println("args[1] = " + args[1]);

The folder with the java compiler executable, javac.exe, isn't in your path. In my environment, it's in c:\Program Files\Java\jdk_1.6.0_01\bin. But I always use the NetBeans development environment, which is free. Google it to download the latest version.
Reply:I believe that sometimes the java files must be in the same folder as the javac command in the jdk(?) package.
