Point taken, accepted and agreed upon. You gave me flashbacks to when I foolishly installed J++ from Developer Studio... don't remember exactly what it did, but being new to coding at the time it took a long time to find the problem.

I vote for your solution. That is, after all, why the funcitonality exists :~)

I don't know about anyone else, but I avoid using installer programs on Windows to avoid exactly this intrusive behavior. I don't want anyone other than myself modifying my system classpath variable. Classpath issues are problematic enough without having some external entity polluting the classpath and causing library versioning problems.


Either use a batch file wrapper or use Class-Path entries in the MANIFEST.MF file. Eg...

Class-Path: jar1.jar jar2.jar other/jar3.jar
