When one reads instructions to set the path (not the classpath) for
setting up a project, what does one do in Eclipse?
Instructions I am following say that, for Windows:
"Suppose you install the HDF object package at c:\apps\hdfobj.
setenv PATH=%PATH%;c:\apps\hdfobj\lib\win"
I've added external jars, thus setting the classpath.
I've tried adding path to the "Run" dialog, but this doesn't help
I still get an unsatisfied link error when running.

It must be using some native code via JNI, and thus needs to find it's
DLL. Another option, I think, is to copy the required DLL(s) into the
working directory that you are launching your application from. I'm
pretty sure that windoze includes the current directory on the PATH by
default.
You might also try adding a PATH entry to the Environment tab for the
launch, if you haven't already.
