You'll often need to work with 3rd party Jars, as well as your own reusable code.

Adding these to your project is very simple.

  1. By default WOLips will create a Libraries folder in your project directory. Populate this with any jars you like.
  2. In Eclipse, right-click (or ctrl-click) on the jar and choose Build Path > Add to Build Path. This simple adjusts your project classpath but doesn't affect your final build.
  3. Adjust your build.xml file to ensure that the jar is also embedded in Contents/Resources/Java directory of the final build as below.

Either add an include entry for each jar...
