Indeed it is there. NoClassDefFoundError is ofter confused with ClassNotFoundException.

NoClassDefFoundError means the class was found, but it couldn't be loaded because
of another class was needed for the base class or interface or an exception was thrown
in a static initializer during class loading. There might be other reasons, but those are
the ones I know about. The problem is that these errors are very hard to debug, so I was
hoping for a clue.
