Run jar file in command prompt

Question

How do we run a jar file in command prompt

User · Answer

If you dont have an entry point defined in your manifest invoking java -jar foo.jar will not work.

Use this command if you dont have a manifest or to run a different main class than the one specified in the manifest:

java -cp foo.jar full.package.name.ClassName
