You cannot simply include one jar in another, the classloader won't
figure this out.

Either you merge the 2 jar files into a single one, or add the second
jar file to your classpath separately, or use your own classloader.

See http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-onejar/ for a
poor guy who had to solve the same problem some time ago.


Regards,
Markus
