I am a newbie to JDom, I try to use XPath to access my xml file. My code is like following:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Document doc = new SAXBuilder().build("file.xml");
XPath x = XPath.newInstance("xpath");
//select the first element in the nodeset
Element elem = (Element)x.selectSingleNode(doc);
......
}
I have already imported org.jdom.xpath.XPath class. When I use javac to compile the class, it didn't give any error, however when I try to run the program, it gives the following exception message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jaxen/NamespaceContext

Did I miss something here? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
I add the jaxen and dom4j in my .cshrc file which resides directly under my home directory, and the two jar files are in the same directory too.
setenv CLASSPATH ${CLASSPATH}:/homedirectory/jaxen-1.1.1.jar
setenv CLASSPATH ${CLASSPATH}:/homedirectory/dom4j-1.6.1.jar
When I try this command from the command line, it generates new exceptions....

By the way, the imported classes in my program are:
import java.util.Iterator;
import org.jdom.Document;
import org.jdom.Element;
import org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder;
import org.jdom.Namespace;
import org.jdom.xpath.XPath;
