[vtk-developers] vtkWrapJava / package vtk;

[Gerrick Bivins]

Actually, the package corresponds to the directory structure. The name of
the jar is irrelevant. In your case, place all your files in dir called vtk,
something like:

 jar cvf vtkgcm.jar vtk/*

Then loading vtkgcm.jar should work as expected.
See http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/deployment/jar/build.html
 for more info.
