Unsure of where to put classpath for mail.jar

Oct 5th, 2004

Hi there.
My name is Diana Thomas. I am a junior Java Developer who needs a bit of help.

I am trying to automatically send e-mails from my Java servlets.
I am using JDeveloper with Oracle 10g.

I have got the mail.jar and the activation.jar from the JavaMail and JavaBeans Activation Framework respectivley.
I have created a "classpath" enviroment variable in the advanced functions in "My Computer" and added these jar files to the classpath.

I don't think this is enough for the compiler to see these classes.
I am sure I need to add these paths somewhere in JDeveloper(Oracle).

Could anyone possibly help me with this?????????????

Many Thanks

Diana Thomas

Hi,

You don't have to modify the classpath if you put those jar files in your JAVA_JRE_DIRECTORY/ lib/ext. What Servlet server are you running? There are also standard locations in servlet servers to put .jar files in.

Hi cosi.
Thanks so much for your help and time. I really appriciate it.
What I've done is put the path in the "System Libraries" option in JDeveloper.
It seems to be working fine. Thanks for the info on the "Java_JRE_DIRECTORY/lib/ext" file. I will put my paths there in future!

Thanks again

Diana Thomas
