vj#: Hi
I converted an old project from J++ to J# and works fine, only thing is that I have to create an object via Class.forName("com.bla.ClassName"); and the class is not found due to classpath issue
Already read through the MSDN lib. and it said "extend the classpath" but not how to do thi

I think assembly that contains the class must be in the GAC or in the
applications directory.

all ur class files need to be converted to assemblies.
Global Assembly Cache - GAC

Hello - Please see the J# docs on Runtime Binding: Class.forName Semantics

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dv_vjsharp/html/vjgrfruntimebindingc
lassfornamesemantics.asp

You might want to try the forName method that also takes the assembly name
as a param. And, double-check that your class is in the assembly with the
VS.NET object browser or the ildasm .NET SDK tool.

If your project conversion did not include the class files in the jar, you
will need to convert these to a .NET assembly. You can use the jbimp tool,
available from the VS.NET command prompt, or add them to the conversion
process when the wizard prompts you for additional items.
