尝试将外部 Jars 添加到 Java 项目（没有 Maven）

Question

I am trying to add external jars to my Java (without Maven) Project.
But I don't get it to work at all. The official documentation: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/java/java-project
says there are 2 ways to do it:
1."You can use the Java Dependency Viewer to add any JAR file to your project." https://code.visualstudio.com/assets/docs/java/java-project/manage-dependencies.gif
As you can seee in the gif, the dev opens a "referenced libraries" folder.
This folder DOES NOT EXIST for me.
or 2."The other easy way to bring additional JAR files as dependencies is to create a lib/ folder in the root directory of the standalone files and place your JAR files there. Source for foo.jar is automatically detected if there is a foo-sources.jar in the lib/ folder."
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/java/java-project/lib.mp4

I have the Jar file in the lib\ folder but it still shows me he same error messages. Are there any steps I am missing?

Answer 1

As it says, place the external jar files in the ...\JAVArpg\lib folder.

So copy them from wherever you have them now. cp../lib/*.jar lib/ is just an example .

You can use the Windows Explorer. You don't have to copy the files using a command-line.
