Adding JAR extensions

I'm trying to build in JSON validation in my tests in SoapUI NG. I found json-schema-validator-2.2.6.jar as was described in the SoapUI cookbook. In this book it tells me to copy all of those files...
custom-jar

    Ok Problem solved.

    Stupid problem really.

    I was running ReadyAPI 1.1.0

    I then updated to 1.2.2. However the shortcut on my desktop was still pointing to 1.1.0. Hence the java libs was copied into 1.2.2 since it is the one I thought I was using. As a simple test I copied into 1.2.2 folder. Everything worked perfect :-)

    Wil update shortcut now to point to the correct place.

     

    Thanks for everyones input.

Ok got a bit further in understanding the problem...

By looking at the current classpath def, it is not adding from the ext folder:

 

set CLASSPATH=%READY_API_HOME%ready-api-ui-1.2.2.jar;%READY_API_HOME%..\lib\*;%READY_API_HOME%..\.install4j\*
"%JAVA%" -cp "%CLASSPATH%" com.eviware.soapui.tools.JfxrtLocator > %TEMP%\jfxrtpath
set /P JFXRTPATH= < %TEMP%\jfxrtpath
del %TEMP%\jfxrtpath
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;%JFXRTPATH%

Just a quick check! Have you restarted readyAPI tool after copying the jar files? If not, can you try that?

    I've restarted yes. 

    I've tried to move that json-schema-validator-2.2.6-lib.jar to every ext or lib folder all over the tree. Restarted the app. not the pc.

      I do not know about windows platform.

       

      But I can see the following in ready-api.sh of 1.2.2 release

      JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dsoapui.ext.libraries=$READY_API_HOME/bin/ext"

      Do you find it in the script?

        I have this line:

        set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dsoapui.ext.libraries="%READY_API_HOME%ext"

         

        Which should resolve to an ext folder in the root of readyapi home right?

        This is maybe where the problem is. I dont have an ext folder in root. Mine is %READY_API_HOME%\bin\ext
