How to set classpath in manifest file , while creating JAR from eclipse?

Question

I am trying to creat JAR file through eclipse. I read some of the threads from

stackoverflow as well as other forums. But nothing is helping.

I have created a separate manifest file like this one.

Manifest-Version: 1.0 Main-Class: Main Class-Path: gnujaxp.jar iText-2.1.5.jar jcalendar.jar jcommon-1.0.16.jar jfreechart-1.0.13.jar jfreechart-1.0.13-experimental.jar jfreechart-1.0.13-swt.jar junit.jar servlet.jar swtgraphics2d.jar tinyos.jar

I have put all this jars in same project folder.

While exporting i am exporting all resources (meants this jar files also.)

But still i am getting noclassdeffound error when my application tries to load any one of the jar included.

M i wrong anywhere ..

Thanks in advance.

If you are using eclipse >=3.4 try "export as runnable jar file" it should generate it correctly.

Otherwhise you can provide your own manifest file in the export as jar dialog.
