Run a JAR file from the command line and specify classpath

Question

I\'ve compiled a JAR file and specified the Main-Class in the manifest (I used the Eclipse Export function). My dependencies are all in a directory labeled li

Answer 1

Run a jar file and specify a class path like this:

java -cp  com.test.App

jar_name.jar is the full name of the JAR you want to execute

libs/* is a path to your dependency JARs

com.test.App is the fully qualified name of the class from the JAR that has the main(String[]) method

The jar and dependent jar should have execute permissions.
