FWIW, I was looking at the lcp.bat file and was scratching my head- I found what it did really convenient but thought it odd that it required a separate file.
Obviously, it seemed to me that what you would expect is
that:
for %%i in (.\lib\*.jar) do call .\lcp.bat
%%i
could be replaced by:
for %%i in
(.\lib\*.jar) do set LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%1
But of
course, someone else would have thought of that, and I see that it doesn't work.
Incidentally, if anyone knows WHY ON EARTH that is, feel free to let me know...
I see the behavior, but can't figure out what is going on.
Anyway, after poking at that, I figured out that the following does work:
for %%i in (.\lib\*.jar) do call :setpath %%i
And further down in your batch file, you need a label with this code:
:setpath
set
LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%1
YMMV,
