How to Add Multiple Jar Files in Classpath in Linux

How to add multiple jar files in classpath in linux

You use the -classpath argument. You can use either a relative or absolute path. What that means is you can use a path relative to your current directory, OR you can use an absolute path that starts at the root /.

Example:

bash$ java -classpath path/to/jar/file MyMainClass

In this example the main function is located in MyMainClass and would be included somewhere in the jar file.

For compiling you need to use javac

Example:

bash$ javac -classpath path/to/jar/file MyMainClass.java

You can also specify the classpath via the environment variable, follow this example:

bash$ export CLASSPATH="path/to/jar/file:path/tojar/file2"
bash$ javac MyMainClass.java

For any normally complex java project you should look for the ant script named build.xml

Adding multiple jars to classpath on commandline

Remove the spaces from the classpath and add the current path

javac -cp jar/A.jar:jar/B.jar:jar/C.jar:jar/D.jar:. MyFile.java

Since Java 6 you can use classpath wilcards

javac -cp jar/*:. MyFile.java

set java classpath to multiple folders that have jar files and run from command line

Here is the solution that finally worked as expected. When the '*' character is used in the classpath for my specific scenario, it skipped everything after the first path. Using the double quotes(") for each path separately and then using ";" as the delimiter is the solution.

Having any space before or after the semi-colon ";" will also not work

javac -verbose -classpath "C:\Program Files\lib\java\core\*";"C:\Program Files\lib\java\core\locale\*";"C:\Program Files\lib\java\modules\*";"C:\Program Files\lib\java\modules\ext\*" testClass.java

How to add multiple .jar files in the javac/java class path - for Debian Linux

Separate the class path entries by : colons, not spaces.

Adding multiple jar files into classpath

The * syntax for classpaths is rather limited. Try:

java -classpath "~/twitter4j-2.2.6/lib/*:." GetHashtag

spark submit add multiple jars in classpath

I was trying to connect to mysql from the python code that was executed using spark-submit.

I was using HDP sandbox that was using Ambari. Tried lot of options such as --jars, --driver-class-path, etc, but none worked.

Solution

Copy the jar in /usr/local/miniconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyspark/jars/

As of now I'm not sure if it's a solution or a quick hack, but since I'm working on POC so it kind of works for me.
