    The classpath should point to the folder that contains the folder at the start of the package name.
    If the package is: mypkg
    and the full path is: C:/Testing/mypkg/myClass.class
    then the classpath should be: C:/Testing
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    i don,t understand ... um new in java... can you explain it clearly

    Repeating my qus again :

    Dear yes we can import package with import a.*;

    import a.*; <Thats mean we are importing all class containing in a folder

    and we need a java file outer of the " a " folder to import package " a "

    but my question is that if we have to different package named " a " and " b "

    that's mean " a " and " b " is two different folder

    if we have a java file " test.java " outside of " a " and " b " folder then we can import packages by import a.; and import b.;

    but i want to call package " a " from package "b" so can

    So can i write import a.*; in the java file " b.java " contain inside " b " folder package?

    If the package is "a" then the classpath should point to the folder holding the "a" folder
    and the same for the "b" package.
