The problem is that won't put the class file where it's meant to be. OK, so you can copy the class file or move it but
a. there's no need
b. if you have packages involved (which you should normally) that won't be easy

If you want to continue at the command line (which personally i think is a good idea), you might like to look at using Ant, which will cope as the classpath gets bigger
Java
Java

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
