James,

Your classpath should include the root of the package directory. I.e.
where you have your grammar file.

e.g.

myGrammar.sablecc:

  package my.package.example;
  ...

$ sablecc myGrammar.sablecc

Sablecc will put all the code in the directorys

   <current dir>
       /my
           /package
               /example
                    /node
                    /parser
                    /lexer
                    /analysis

Your classpath should include <current dir> and you should import the
classes with

  import my.package.example.node.*;
  import my.package.example.parser.*;

and so on... Usually your classpath does include the current directory
unless you change it yourself.

I've never used Visual J++ so I can't help you with that. Sorry.

Regards,

Roger
