Re: Wildcards in classpath?

The wildcard expansion is supported by java launcher.
When not using the java launcher, and using the JNI invocation API directly
( which is how RPG invokes the jvm), its up to the caller to provide a full
classpath and expand any wildcards required.

RUNJVA & QSHELL thus uses java launcher, so it supports the wildcard
expansion.

Stackoverflow link shows there is similar issue in oracle jdk. Seems it's
not an IBM specific issue.

Sent by:	"JAVA400-L" <java400-l-bounces-+hD5IHI5Xscn3HwCXmMcX9BPR1lH4CV8@public.gmane.org>



Is it possible to use wildcards in the Java classpath?  I'd like to add
this entry:
/java/myApps/*

And for this single entry to find any JAR files in sub-dirs beneath
/java/myApps (e.g /java/myApps/Apple/A.JAR,
/java/myApps/Grape/Concord/B.JAR).

I tried /java/myApps/* but it doesn't seem to work for me.  FWIW, I'm
setting the CLASSPATH via a job-level ENVVAR and the calling apps are RPGLE
accessing the Java JARs via extProc(*java).


TIA
