Hi,

I have developed a program which uses an API. I dont have access to set the API to the classpath of my machine.

What is the best way to use the API to run the program which I developed using the API? Will it help if I place the API in the same folder of program?

Can anyone suggest?

Regards

Ajay

The usual way to specify libraries is to use the "-classpath" switch, as in "java -classpath myLibrary.jar myClass". I recommend avoiding the CLASSPATH environment setting altogther; it's generally more hassle than it's worth.
