Java class path in manifest not starting libraries

I have compiled a .jar file and I edited the archive of the MANIFEST.MF to add the Class-Path I have a couple libraries that I need to be in the class-path in order to run the application, here is my classpath:

Class-Path: lib\commons-net-3.1.jar lib\org.eclipse.swt-3.1.jar lib\prompt.jar lib\zip4j_1.3.2.jar

the folder config is like so:

Root directory ('dist'):

-lib folder

-myProgram.jar

So what am I doing wrong for the class-path not to recognize the libraries in the lib folder?

Use 

  lib/org.eclipse.swt-3.1.jar

instead of 

  lib\org.eclipse.swt-3.1.jar

when adding libs in manifest

  Class-Path: lib/commons-net-3.1.jar lib/org.eclipse.swt-3.1.jar lib/prompt.jar lib/zip4j_1.3.2.jar

You should use slashes instead of backslashes. Also make sure that the manifest ends with an empty line.
