Setting the Java class path?

[Bitcoin Broker]

Not quite sure how to set the path for java classes on the server.

That depends on your setup, especially operating system etc.

I'm running Lucee on Windows 10 with CommandBox. Is that what you want? Pardon me, I'm quite new at this.

No worries. "set the path for java classes" can imply a number of things. What are you trying to accomplish specifically? (use a Java class from Lucee? Tell Java to look in a different directory for classes?)

I'm trying to tell the Lucee server where to look for for Java classes that I want to use

Gotcha. The method Iike to use is to define in my Application.cfc where to find the jar files, so that my jars can be portable with my application and I don't need to copy them to server directories. 

//Application.cfc
//LoadPaths - Array of paths to jar files or directory
component {this.javaSettings = {LoadPaths = [".\java_lib\",".\java\myjar.jar"]}
}

You can also put them in the Lucee lib folders for the whole server, or per context. Use can use the directory placeholders (ex. {lucee-web}) to find these paths on any Lucee install dynamically. Here are where my directories show up for my commandbox installation.

<cfscript>
<!--- Web Context --->
echo(expandPath('{lucee-web}/lib')); //C:\Users\Rory\.CommandBox\server\A9F9212AEA00D070AA3482E81E747F69\lib
<!--- Server Context --->
echo(expandPath('{lucee-server}/lib') & "<br />"); //C:\Users\Rory\.CommandBox\engine\cfml\server\lucee-server\context\lib
</cfscript>
