title: Specifying multiple -cp or -classpath entries on java command line
body: <p>The Java documentation is fairly explicit in how to define multiple classpath directories (delimited by ; or : depending on OS).</p>
  
  <p>However, I have a situation where a framework is already setting the -cp flag to an application directory.  I have the ability to add additional options to the command line, so I was wondering why I can't add my own additional -cp option that specifies my path.</p>
  
  <p>Will this automatically combine the classpath entries, or will it result in only one of the two entries being used?  If the latter, which one will be used?</p>
