I use NetBeans 6.5 .

When I try to run the following code :

package com.afrikbrain.numeroteur16;

import java.sql.Connection; import java.sql.DriverManager; import java.sql.SQLException; import java.util.logging.Level; import java.util.logging.Logger;

/** * * @author */

public class NumeroteurTest {

public NumeroteurTest() {

}

public void doIt() throws ClassNotFoundException{ try {

  Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
  Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE","user","pwd");
  String newNUMERO = new Numeroteur16("MATCLI", connection).numeroter();
  System.out.println("NUMERO GENERE : "+newNUMERO.toString());
}
catch (SQLException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(NumeroteurTest.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        ex.printStackTrace();
}
catch (NumException ex) {
  System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
  ex.printStackTrace();
}

}

public static void main(String[] args){ try { new NumeroteurTest().doIt(); } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) { Logger.getLogger(NumeroteurTest.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex); System.out.println("Driver not found."); } } }

when running it, I get this error :

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:307) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:301) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:252) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:320) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:169) at com.afrikbrain.numeroteur16.NumeroteurTest.doIt(NumeroteurTest.java:27) at com.afrikbrain.numeroteur16.NumeroteurTest.main(NumeroteurTest.java:45) Driver not found.

how do I solve this problem ?
