You need to make sure your CLASSPATH is set up properly. In this case
I recommend this:
mkdir -p crawford/prata_project
javac crawford/prata_project/Stock.java
javac crawford/prata_project/StockTest.java
This will create
javac crawford/prata_project/Stock.class
javac crawford/prata_project/StockTest.class
Your default classpath = ".", and when the system looks for class
crawford/prata_project/Stock.class it will find it if you are at the
top level.
If you put those classes in the current directory, rather than down in
a directory strucutre which matches your class hierarchy, then you can
see that the resulting classes are *not* in your classpath. Because
the entire class name is used (substituting directories for packages)
when looking up classes.
Make sense?
