Subject: [gentoo-java] CLASSPATH deprecated?
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2006 22:13:32 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <455E340C.5070708@yahoo.co.uk> (raw)
Hello,
In section 6 of the Gentoo Java Guide, it mentions that setting a
system-wide CLASSPATH should be considered deprecated because
applications should manage their own classpaths. This makes sense, but I
am wondering, how are applications expected to do this? If an
application needs to make use of a 3rd party JAR, does it have to
include it as part of its own installation so it knows which version it
is, and where it is located, or is there some less brute-force automated
means for an application to locate installed libraries?
Thanks,
Matt.
