By "default Java classpath" do you mean the Java Extensions directory
(/Library/Java/Extensions)? If so, allow me to disabuse you of that
notion. That directory is NOT NOT NOT NOT a "default Java
classpath". It is specifically and strictly for extension to the
_core_ Java API. PayPal is not an extension to the core Java API, it
is just a run of the mill third party library. Just to be clear:
this is a Java issue, not a WebObject's issue.
If you must have an easy place to dump this, try the WebObjects
Extensions directory (/Library/WebObjects/Extensions). I dislike
using this as it opens up the potential of conflicting version issues
in deployment.
IMHO, the correct way to use these jars with WebObjects is to add
them to a framework and include the framework in the project that
needs the libraries. Turtorial here: http://wiki.objectstyle.org/
