I just did the "Installed Extensions" tutorial at
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/ext/basics/install.html

My extension wouldn't work until I put the .jar in:
{JAVADIR}/lib/ext
rather than
{JAVADIR}/jre/lib/ext

I notice that I have most extensions (jars) in both directories?
Do I have a non-standard install?
(Windows XP; j2sdk1.4.2 (from Netbeans co-bundle))

Curious,
Julia
