> It would help to have the ability to add jars and configuration files to the
> classpath - since that is where ofbiz looks for.
>
> So the idea is to make it easy for people to add things at the BEGINING of
> the classpath so they can override ofbiz configurations (and / or libraries
> ?!)
>
> I believe this can achieved for both gradle deploy and binary (ofbiz.tar)
> deploy with minimal changes.
>
> If you could add the code snippet bellow to build.gradle then people can add
> files to config/ and lib-extra/ directories and they will be available for
> ofbiz when it starts.
>
> I've tested this and it works for my ofbiz docker build (I'm planning an
> article these next 2 days and will share it. Spoiler: it works on ARM -
> raspberry pi 4 ).
>
> I'm also adding the database drivers post build to lib-extra since gradle
> hardcodes the classpath at build. Adding new jars to lib/ does not do
> anything.
>
> That way I can keep the ofbiz source unchanged and still get what I need.

> // Alter the start script for Windows systems.
