It's kind of interesting how Java locates the entry point of an application.
When you type "java <classname>", java attempts to load the class
specified, and through reflection, locate the main method. In other
words, you want to enter the name of the class that contains the main
method of your application; this is because there could be multiple
.class files within your app.
Probably tmi since you've already got your app running, but hth!
