Re: CLASSPATH longer than 1024 characters causes ADDENVVAR to fail

Hi Pete,

After trying every trick in the book, including shortening directory names and jars, we finally settled on using QSH:

1. We created an additional directory under our main directory ( <RootDirectoryname> ), which we called lib
2. We created a shell script called runxxx.sh like this:

CLASSPATH=<RootDirectoryName> for file in <RootDirectoryName>/lib/*.jar do
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$file;
done;
echo $CLASSPATH;
java -cp $CLASSPATH -Djava.version=1.5 com.mycompany.myproject.MainClass

We then changed out the RUNJVA command for a QSH command. to run this shell script instead.

Any idea of how to set a classpath in CL greater than a 1024 characters? I tried ADDENVVAR but it is limited to 1024 characters. I thought I had seen a post in the past but a search of the archives didn't turn up a solution.

Don't ask why the classpath is so long...sigh...
