running an application outside Eclipse [message #160591]

I created an app using Eclipe M8. I am trying to run this app outside
Eclipse.
On a clean box I installed the jre 1.4.2_04 and swt-3.0M8-win32.zip (copying
the dll's into windows\system32).
After I created a jar from my app (say fred.jar) I copied it in a
directory.
I set CLASSPATH=. and I do java -jar fred.jar
I am getting
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/eclipse/swt/graph/Device
Same behaviour if I copy swt.jar in the current directory.
What am I doing wrong ?

CLASSPATH=.;swt.jar

you have to put the jar file on the classpath, not the directory
containing the jar.
