set classpath for jar file

[HS1]

Hello

I have an application that uses some jar files in different folders. For
example, it needs

c:\folder1\file1.jar
c:\folder1\file2.jar
c:\folder2\file1.jar

I want to create classpath for those files. Do I have point out the exact
jar files as above in classpath or I can create by doing something like:

c:\folder1
c:\folder2

Thank you
SH1

You have to explicitly add every jar file to the class path. if you add the
directory to the classpath, it will add any classes inside it but not jar
files.

My question is about the classes which you mention will be included if we
add directory to the classpath.
what if the directory has a sub directory which also have classes? Will they
be included too automatically? If not then is there a setting option
available to do that? its lot of work to include each sub directory.
TIA

If the subdirectories reflect a package structure, only to root of that
structure needs to be added to the classpath.

Neither: the references in the Class-Path: header work the same as the
classpath to javac and java, but they only allow relative paths, and the
directory separator is '/'.

See the JAR File Specification, under section "Main Attributes":
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/jar/jar.html

PS: The directory separator doesn't seem to be mentioned, but I prefer '/'
because '\' also denotes special characters (tab, newline, unicode, ...).
