How to run a java jar file with arguments and classpath in command promt

Question

I have a jar file program.jar which requires a third party jar external.jar, I can run it with the following command:

java -cp -jar program.jar; external.jar

But I need to pass two arguments arg1 and arg2 to the program.jar's main function. How can I do it? Without the external.jar I know it can be done with

java -jar program.jar arg1 arg2

Thanks.

Either make your jar as executable and execute the main method with arguments as you mentioned above. else
