In this example we shall show you how to get the Class Path. We are using theRuntimeMXBean, that is the management interface for the runtime system of the Java virtual machine. To get the Class Path with the theRuntimeMXBean one should perform the following steps:

  • Get the JVM’s thread system bean, that is theRuntimeMXBean, using thegetRuntimeMXBean() API method ofManagementFactory.
  • Use thegetClassPath() API method of RuntimeMXBean. This method returns the Java class path that is used by the system class loader to search for class files,

as described in the code snippet below.

package com.javacodegeeks.snippets.core;import java.lang.management.ManagementFactory;import java.lang.management.RuntimeMXBean; public class GetClassPath {    public static void main(String[] args) {    RuntimeMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean();    System.out.println("Class path = " + bean.getClassPath());}}

Output:

Class path = C:UsersjavacodegeeksworkspaceEclipseSnippetsbin

 
This was an example of how to get the Class Path in Java.
