Hello, thanks for reading this, well this is what happens, i have a RMI server (objRMI.jar) in a folder in my computer which i created and compiled from line commands, and i have an android application in eclipse IDE, now i want that my android application in eclipse works as a client for the RMI server that i have in another directory, the thing is that i don't know how to set the classpath to objRMI.jar, and also call the interface in the server i been doing it through commands lines from another client in the same directory like this
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;.\objRMI.jar;.
but i dont know how to do it in eclipse
the invocation in the client that i have in the same diretory where the server is, is like this:
MyRMIinterface mri = (MyRMIinterface)java.rmi.Naming.lookup("//" +args[0] + ":" + args[1] + "/TestRMI");
but in eclipse, because they are not in the same directory it shows me an error, that i have to create the class MyRMIinterface.
i also want to be able to run a client in one machines to connect to the RMI server in another machine.

Just open Run Configurations and add the jar file pointer there.

Everything you can do on a command line you can do with the Run Configurations.
