Difference between sh file.sh and file.sh
- by RAS
I have two questions :
What is the difference between executing sh filename.sh and filename.sh?
How can I make both of them giving me the same output ?
I'm asking this question as right now I'm facing a problem. I'm trying to run a Java + SWT application from terminal.
When I do filename.sh, it gives me the desired output.
But when I do sh filename.sh or bash filename.sh, it throws me an error :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: MainForm/java
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: MainForm.java

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247)
Could not find the main class: MainForm.java. Program will exit.
I know this question is already asked here but I'm still not clear about it.
I have gone through the following links :
What is the difference between ./ and sh to run a script?
Can scripts run even when they are not set as executable?
Can anyone help me with this?
