Hi everyone.
we know that if we have jar files and we want to access these files in our application, we must put then under ext dir.
fine, I am using winxp, and I have the following dirs:
------------------------------------
JAVA_HOME\jre\lib\ext\
Program Files\Java\jre1.4.0\lib\ext\
------------------------------------
I am always but the extra jar files under "JAVA_HOME\jre\lib\ext\"
but when putting the mysql
jdbc driver under this dir, the application doesn't work until I put this jar under "Program Files\Java\jre1.4.0\lib\ext\"
so what is wrong ??
should I add some thing to my classpath??
---------------------
my CLASSPATH is:
.;D:\SDKSE\lib\tools.jar;D:\SDKSE
--------------------
SDKSE is the dir which I have installed the SDK 1.4.0
and I have set the JAVA_HOME variable at D:\SDKSE
when looking at system properties inside my machine I found :
sun.boot.library.path=D:\SDKSE\jre\bin
java.home=D:\SDKSE\jre
java.ext.dirs=D:\SDKSE\jre\lib\ext
what is the mission of "Program Files\Java" ??
So , please help me because I am in trouble here...
