can't run a jar with classpath [message #510637]

Hi,
I developed a jar file that has h2.jar in the classpath.
I run the program in eclipse and everything goes well.
When I execute jar out of my project, and put it in c:
including the h2.jar, and call:
C:\>java -jar myJar.jar classpath c:\h2.jar
I get: org.h2.DriverLjava.lang.StackTraceElement;@173a10f .
Actually it doesn't find the jar.

Thanks

I solved it !
The solution for anyone who will need it:
I added a manifest file that includes the filepath and it has been resolved.
Thanks.

That's not really an Eclipse question. If you specify -jar then takes
the classpath from the JAR's manifest.mf and ignores -classpath. It
might be simpler if you just select your project and then use File >
