Error importing jar in groovy script (soapui)

Question

I have a problem with running java code from groovy script (groovy script is a part of SoapUI test suite) i create simple script: ``` import myjar.jar new TopClass().sayHello() ``` the code of TopClass: ``` public class TopClass { public void sayHello (){ System.out.println("Hello"); } } ``` I put myjar.jar into both soapui-pro-2.5\lib and soapui-pro-2.5\bin\ext folders. But running script I get: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed, Script1.groovy: 2: unable to resolve class myjar.jar @ line 2, column 1.org.codehaus.groovy.syntax.SyntaxException: unable to resolve class myjar.jar @ line 2, column 1. at org.codehaus.groovy.ast.ClassCodeVisitorSupport.addError(ClassCodeVisitorSupport.java:113) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.ResolveVisitor.visitClass(ResolveVisitor.java:970) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.ResolveVisitor.startResolving(ResolveVisitor.java:141) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit$5.call(CompilationUnit.java:527) at org.…

Accepted Answer

Putting the jar under `soapui-pro-2.5\bin\ext` is all you need for the classes to be found (although restarting `SoapUI` won't hurt).

However - you should check that the error you get is related to your jar. Is `com.my.research` available within `myjar.jar`? If no - just add it.

If yes, add more detailed information to your post.
