Well, first of all in Java you don't execute a class. You can execute a
method in a class, provided it's a static method, or you can execute a
method of an object, which of course belongs to a class. But if this class
is in a different directory? Sure. You just have to set up your classpath
to include that directory, and it'll work fine.
