Re: [gentoo-dev] Re: CLASSPATH addition in ebuild

[Dominik Westner]

Hi Jacob,

I think you have to put your classpath in:

/usr/share/<package name>/package.env

e.g. here is an example for ant:

brain root # less /usr/share/ant/package.env
DESCRIPTION=""
CLASSPATH=/usr/share/ant/lib/*.jar:/usr/share/ant/lib/xercesImpl.jar:/ 
usr/share/
ant/lib/xml-apis.jar

then a user is able to configure their system and user classpath to  
their liking whith java-config.

e.g. show what is installed:
java-config --list-available-packages

java-config --set-system-classpath=package1,package2,...
and
java-config --set-user-classpath=package1,package2,...

This is a great concept and worked very well for me.

Hope this helps

Dominik
