Create runnable jar file in Eclipse

Question

• I use sqljdbc driver for my project
• I have a "libs" folder to store all libraries
• To be able to connect to MSSQLServer I set "Native Library Location" for my sqljdbc4.jar. You see this native library location is in "libs" folder too

• Everything's OK,but when I create runnable jar file, I have connection problem

    org.hibernate.exception.JDBCConnectionException: Could not open connection 

• It is caused by "no sqljdbc_auth in java.library.path"

What should I do to create a right runnable jar file? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You might need to add your sqljdbc driver to your Classpath Variables as follows:

Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Build Path -> Classpath Variables

With the 'New' button you can add the name and the path to your file.

Hope this helps !

Answer 2

OK I found it. Add sqljdbc_auth.dll of driver to System32, and no need to add native library location anymore
