Answer 1

ok If I understood, you need to add a third part Jar
file to your own Jar File App so...
Yes, you can decompress it in a directory tree and
merge it with your application (i.e) if you have a jar
file like this:
br.com.yourApp.util
and a third part jar file like this:
br.com.thirdPart.tools
br.com.thirdPart.util
you will have these directory trees:
br/com/yourApp/util/
br/com/thirdPart/tools/
br/com/thirdPart/util/
then you can marge it in a unique tree:
br/com/yourApp/util/
....../thirdPart/tools/
................/util/
then you can make a new jar file with it...
.....OR YOU CAN ADD THE PATH where your JDBCDrive is
placed to the classpath of your application just using
the -classpath option execution string of you
application, like this:
C:\jreHome\bin\java.exe -jar -classpath
.;C:\someDir\thirdPart.jar yourApp.jar
That's the better way to do it and then everything
will work! :-)
