Adding an xml to java classpath in UNIX

We know that we use the below for setting classpath for java execution from UNIX. This will work for ading all the jar files to classpath.

java -cp ..jars/* MainClass

But if I want to add an xml file to classpath, what should I do? I tried the below and it is not working.

java -cp ..jars/*:../resources/abc.xml MainClass

In eclipse, to do the same thing, I just have to right click the resources folder and select "Use as Source Folder".

Can you please help?

You don't need to add the xml file name to the classpath. Just add the path to the folder which holds the xml file. In your example: ../resources/
