When I'm in Eclipse my project compiles with no errors, however when I try to compile with javac it says I'm missing some packages...
I copied my compile command and some of the error text below:
javac -classpath lib/ -d bin/ src/*.java src/Cleaner.java:5: package net.sourceforge.jgeocoder does not exist src/MyUtilities.java:19: package org.apache.commons.codec.binary does not exist In Eclipse, I have added all the .JAR files to the build-path, and the program compiles just fine.
Why can it not find the jars when I use javac instead of the Eclipse IDE?

Extension classes - Classes that use the Java Extension mechanism. These are bundled as . jar files located in the extensions directory.
JAR files are packaged in the ZIP file format. The unzip command is a commonly used utility for working with ZIP files from the Linux command-line. Thanks to the unzip command, we can view the content of a JAR file without the JDK.
Right-click on the JAR file. Go to “Open With Other Applications”. Select Show other applications. Select Open With OpenJDK Java X Runtime.
-classpath lib/ will cause javac to look for a tree of class files in lib. If you have JAR archives there, you have to use -classpath lib/*.jar - and probably use whatever escaping mechanism your CLI has on the * to make sure it reaches javac rather than being expanded by the CLI
See the javac command reference (windows).
