javah -jni problem with compiling my package

i'm trying to compile some java code on Solaris 10.

let's say I have the class MyClass in the file MyClass.java and it is located in the directory /export/home/asmyatt/TestApp/com/MyPackage/

at the top of MyClass.java I have
package com.MyPackage;

Then I do the following:
javac MyClass.java  *** It compiles with no errors ***
javah -jni MyClass

When I run this statement I get the following error:

error: cannot access MyClass
bad class file: ./MyClass.class
class file contains wrong class: com.MyPackage.MyClass
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.

*****************************
If I remove the package statement at the top it works fine. The only problem then is i don't know how to get the additional classes in the package to see the compiled class file.

I would prefer that it let me put this class in the package. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?
