When I was working with java spring hibernate struts2 eclipse project. I used buildpath-> addjar option to add jars from a folder inside the workspace. Even if the class is available it shows class not found exception.
If i put those jar files in web-inf/lib folder everything works.. Should i keep those files in the lib itself? Can i just include those jars in a seperate folder and add jar using eclipse configure build path??
what is the problem ? please help me… thanks in advance…
If you’re using a standard Eclipse Dynamic web project, best way to go is to put all your Jars in the
WEB-INF\libfolder. This will automatically add them to your build path and also include them in your WAR when you export it.If you still want to use the Build Path > Add Jar option on the project, and want your Jars to also be included in your WAR, you have to go to the Project Properties > Deployment Assembly configuration and include them there. Of course this is double the work for every Jar.
