Answer 1

You need to provide the fully qualified name of the class with package name and not include ".class". So you need to place yourself in the parent directory to where ApiDemo.class is - i.e. out>production>testPrj.

And then execute:

$ java apidemo.ApiDemo

Another way is to provide "out/production/testPrj" as the classpath:

$ java -cp /path/to/out/production/testPrj apidemo.ApiDemo
