Java file path
With the radio buttons on the left you can switch between the
-
Class path
The class path consists of directories and jar files that are used for the -classpath VM argument.
The class path is also used by the bytecode viewer to
find class files for display.
-
Source path
The source path optionally lists archives and directories that contain source code for some or all of
the entries in the class path. Note that the
sources of the selected JDK contained in src.jar or
src.zip will be automatically appended if they are installed.
The source path is is used by the
source code viewer
to display Java sources.
-
Native library path
The native library path consists of directories that are added to the native library envrironment variable.
The name of the native library envrironment variable depends on the operating system.
You only have to specify the native library path when you load native libraries by calling
java.lang.System.loadLibrary()
or for resolving dependent libraries that
have to be dynamically loaded by your native libraries.
When clicking the
add button you can select multiple
path entries to the path list in one go from the file chooser. Alternatively, to quickly add a list of path
entries defined elsewhere, you can copy a path from the system clipboard by clicking
copy button. The path must consist of either
- a single path entry
-
or multiple path entries separated by the standard path separator (";" on Windows, ":" on UNIX)
or by line breaks.
Each path entry can be
-
absolute
The path entry is added as it is.
-
relative
On the first occurrence of a relative path, JProfiler brings up a directory chooser and asks for
the root directory against which relative paths should be interpreted. All subsequent relative
paths will be interpreted against this root directory.
JProfiler will only add unique path entries into the list. If no new path entry could be found,
a corresponding error message is displayed.
Note: Adjusting the class and source path during an active session is effective for the
source code and bytecode viewer only.
