How to set the system environment CLASSPATH variable in Windows 7
java
Solution
Your classpath is bad. You haven't to use the *. If the directory of your external jars are in the C:\Program Files\Java\externaljars you have just to add this path to your classpath like that:
CLASSPATH = .;"C:\Program Files\Java\externaljars";
Problem
I am trying to set the CLASSPATH variable so that my java programs can access external jars. All the jars are in one directory and using the Java 1.6 wildcard feature, I currently have assigned the CLASSPATH variable to this value: ``` C:\Program Files\Java\externaljars\* ``` Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working. Does anyone have any idea of what I am doing wrong? I am running Windows 7.
