In Linux, how to execute Java jar file with external jar files?
In Li开发者_开发问答nux, how to execute Java jar file with external jar files?
Either use the -cp
flag:
java -cp /path/to/somefolder/*.jar:/path/to/otherfolder/*.jar com.YourMainClass
Or add a Class-Path:
header to your jar's manifest (see Jigar's answer)
Note to others who answered with java -jar <etc>
: The -jar
flag deactivates the standard -cp
flag and CLASSPATH
environment variable, because it retrieves the classpath from the JAR manifest. Any answer that combines -jar
and either -cp
or $CLASSPATH
will not work.
This information is well-hidden, but I finally found a reference:
-jar
Execute a program encapsulated in a JAR file. The first argument is the name of a JAR file instead of a startup class name. In order for this option to work, the manifest of the JAR file must contain a line of the form Main-Class: classname. Here, classname identifies the class having thepublic static void main(String[] args)
method that serves as your application's starting point. See the Jar tool reference page and the Jar trail of the Java Tutorial for information about working with Jar files and Jar-file manifests. When you use this option, the JAR file is the source of all user classes, and other user class path settings are ignored.
Source: java - the Java application launcher
java -jar /path/to/externalJarFile.jar
Update
You can add the required library in manifest with Class-Path:
header
For example :
Class-Path: MyUtils.jar
