Hi,
Can somebody give me a shell script that will load multiple jar files into
the CLASSPATH variable?
This code puts all jar files in the current directory into the class
path. This does not take into account the fact that CP will have a
leading ':'. If you implement a simple flag variable you can eliminate
that. I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader. In fact this
whole question should have been an exercise for the reader. It should
be trivial to have it use only a specific set of jar files.
Also note that if you're just trying to get all the jar files in a given
directory into your classpath, there's an easier way:
java -Djava.ext.dirs=/path/to/directory MyClass
All the jars in /path/to/directory will automatically be picked up by
Java. (See http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/java/extensions.html for example.)
