Hi!,

Assuming you have a "hadoop" command available (i.e. the
$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop script), try to do:

export CLASSPATH=`hadoop classpath`

And then try to run your ./a.out.

Does this help?

Also, user questions may go to u...@hadoop.apache.org. The
hdfs-dev@hadoop.apache.org is for Apache HDFS project
developer/development discussions alone. I've moved your thread to the
proper place.
