how to add a jar file to the classpath

[james_decosta]

hi,
for the typical install set everything works fine.
but for the minimal install set, even when my customcoderule jar file is there which contains my class.
It shows an error where i am instantiating the mysql jdbc driver
(ie line no 40 in RODataBaseRuleFalse.java:40)

myDriver = (Driver)Class.forName(DRIVER).newInstance();
and the error stack trace is given below

Installer: looking for Win32 DLLs in C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\I1196853865\InstallerData\..\Windows\resource
RepositoryManager: lock acquired on: C:\Program Files\Zero G Registry\.com.zerog.registry.lock

It seems for the minimal install set the mysql-connectore-bin.jar is not in the classpath.
How to add it to the classpath for minimal install set.
(NOTE:It works fine for typical install set)
