Well, he may need to do that eventually to get it to work, but since
his stated problem is that he can't get it to compile, doesn't that
mean that it's being caused by a different problem?
My guess is that there still is a problem with either the CLASSPATH or
the location of the files. If you (Guarav Kishore) haev double
checked and it still looks OK, perhaps it would be helpful if you
posted your CLASSPATH and the full path to those Acme files.
Also realize that there are likely different CLASSPATH's -- with the
run environment having one and the compile environment having another.
Perhaps it's not in the one in the compile environment.
