Exeternal Libraries Location on JAR

Hi.

I have a java program that uses a library folder containing a set of class files in a subdirectory directory and a manifest file in another sub directory so:

Library Directory

/\

/ \

| |

| |

V V

class_files dirmanifest dir

What I would like to know is where I should place this library folder when I want to create a jar of the program which uses this library.

I am using netbeans, so I have the application folder also. Should it be placed somewhere in this? The directory structure of this folder contains the standard build, dist, src, nbproject, test folders and the build and mainfest files in the top level directory.

Thanks

Andy

Also, should I convert the library to a jar?

If you have class files for your liberary, then put these class files directly into the build folder so that these classes will be added into your application's jar.

You can also make jar for your liberary classes and put these jars into build folder. Whatever you will put into your build folder, that will be included into your jar.

I am also using Netbean and whatever I need to put into my application jar, I put that into build folder.
