Can a Java application's classes be based, say, on a server, and accessed from a client machine using the java command line script/executable, passing the server URL/path in the classpath? e.g. from the client machine: java -classpath .:/classes/mypackage someClass Will the above work? Can you use other protocols like FTP, HTTP etc. in the URL if it does work? ---------- Joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
