How to specify JAR files in the classpath?

--
A JAR file (or Java Archive) is a ZIP file, file that contains an optional META-INF directory, used to distribute a set of Java classes and interfaces. The java compiler and run-time can search for classes in JAR files. The classes in a JAR file must be under the right directory that is "directory name = package name".
To include a JAR file in the class search path, the classpath points to the JAR itself, not the directory that contains the JAR.

For example, you have a JAR myLibs.jar in directory /myLibs. To have the Java compiler look for classes in this jar, you need to specify:
javac -classpath /myLibs/myLibs.jar ...
and not directly point to the directory myLibs

WebSphere MQ Interview Questions

What is MQ and what does it do? Ans. MQ stands for MESSAGE QUEUEING. WebSphere MQ allows application programs to use message queuing to participate in message-driven processing. Application programs can communicate across different platforms by using the appropriate message queuing software products. What is Message driven process? Ans . When messages arrive on a queue, they can automatically start an application using triggering. If necessary, the applications can be stopped when the message (or messages) have been processed. What are advantages of the MQ? Ans. 1. Integration. 2. Asynchrony 3. Assured Delivery 4. Scalability. How does it support the Integration? Ans. Because the MQ is independent of the Operating System you use i.e. it may be Windows, Solaris,AIX.It is independent of the protocol (i.e. TCP/IP, LU6.2, SNA, NetBIOS, UDP).It is not required that both the sender and receiver should be running on the same platform What is Asynchrony? Ans. With messag...
