Run-time Eclipse error [message #115019]

I am trying to use external jars which are not part of the Eclipse workspace
to integrate with my GEF project. To do this I added these jars using the
Window->Preference->Java->ClassPath Variables. Then I opened the
GEF Project's Preferences->Java Build Path and added the jar files
using the "Add Variable" button. The compilation errors were all fixed.
But when I run the project I get ClassNotFoundException error on
the classes that were part of the external jar. Also, when I select the
Project->Update Classpath I get compilation errors on these same
classes and the variables that I added to build the project were wiped
clean. Any idea how to include these jars at runtime. I also tried editing
the .classpath file in the runtime directory without much success.

One way is to import the jar files directly into your project, and then add
them to the Java Build Path.

BTW, this question is better-suited for the eclipse.platform newsgroup.
