From: jason on 27 May 2010 15:37 Hello, Once i have downloaded the binary with dependencies (assuming this is the right file to be downloading: http://www.takeyellow.com/apachemirror/httpcomponents/httpclient/binary/httpcomponents-client-4.0.1-bin-with-dependencies.tar.gz) How do I go about adding this to my java library such that I may use it in any and all future projects as an import? ie. When I go to run their sample program (http://svn.apache.org/repos/ asf/httpcomponents/httpcore/tags/4.0.1/httpcore/src/examples/org/ apache/http/examples/ElementalHttpGet.java) I am given an error that the import cannot be resolved. any help would be largely appreciated. i am sure this is a very simple error i have just never needed to use an outside library until now. thank you!

Command line you can use the -classpath switch to point to the jar file. In your IDE you can add the jar to the classpath inside the IDE (exactly how depends on what IDE). For deployment it depends on the type of app, but for a desktop app, then adding a Class-Path directive to you manifest is an obvious option. Never use the global CLASSPATH env variable. Arne |
