Packaging Additional jars with Midlet jar

Question

How should i package any additional Jar in my Midlet suit. Basically i am using JBuilder 2006 to develop a J2ME applcation and i have installed Nokia Developer suit for Midlet packaging. I thought that by adding the jar files (utility/helping) to res folder would enable me to package them with Midlet jar but it is not hapening. So on emulators my application is running fine as all the jars are in classpath but when i deploy the midlet jar in my cell phone it throws a No Class DEf found error which is logical and correct as no any utility jar is included in the midlet suit.
Please help me to find a solution. I am in a dying stage and has to submit the deliverables by tomorrow.
Thanking in anticipation.

Answer 1

I extract 3rd party JARs and then include them in my JAR as follows:
jar  xf  jakarta-oro-2.0.5.jar
jar  xf jasperreports-1.2.1.jar
jar  xf  iReport.jar
jar cmf  mainClass Spec  Remote.jar  *.class  org/  net/  it/The extraction of jakarta... produces the org/ path, jasperreports... produces the net/ path and iReport ... produces the it/ path. All are in my working directory as are my *.class files. I hope this is the answer you need.
