This is the KISS answer    Let s say you have several  java files in the current directory     ls -1   java javaFileName1 java javaFileName2 java   Let s say each of them have a main   method  so they are programs  not libs   then to compile them do   javac   java -d     This will generate as many subfolders as  packages  the  java files are associated to  In my case all java files where inside under the same package name packageName  so only one folder was generated with that name  so to execute each of them   java -cp   packageName javaFileName1 java -cp   packageName javaFileName2
