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.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Wildcards in classpath?
Sent by: "JAVA400-L" <java400-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
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
