Classpath with Kettle on a Mac.

[Brandon Jackson]

What is the best method of adding to the classpath that Spoon cares about on a Mac?  It is not picking up the simple-jndi jar for JNDI functionality.

I've tried adding to ~/.bash_profile an addition CLASSPATH pointing to the lib and jar location within the directory to the very jar that serves up that class, but no dice.

I tried adding the -cp and a filepath to spoon.sh, but the same result came back.

VisualVM is not showing me any additional CLASSPATH picked up by the application.

Below is my Java version.

java version "1.7.0_71"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_71-b14)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.71-b01, mixed mode)

I am not using the strange plist or any of that which would kick off Java 6, just running ./spoon.sh from a terminal which does use Java 7.

Spoon uses the Pentaho application launcher (in the launcher/ folder), the classpath is set up in launcher.properties. Add your folder(s) there, should get picked up.

Cheers,

Matt
