I have created a program to connect to MySQL. I add Connector/j using eclipse add external jar option. Program works fine in eclipse. But when I created the executable jar using eclipse and when i run it, it always give ClassNotFoundException. Please tell me how to add external jars to my jar. Or is there any other error? Please can anyone help me.
The simplest solution is to export your project as a ‘Runnable Jar file’ (Right-click on project->Export…->Runnable Jar file) that will place all dependencies in one jar file.
Otherwise you will need to include a classpath to the additional jars either in the manifest.mf file or on the command line with the -cp option.
