How to set the java class path in a JEE installation of Coldfusion 11

[Joop Kaashoek]

We are working on getting ColdFusion 11 to work with JBOSS EAP6.3, as a JEE/J2EE installation. The Coldfusion 11 has a CF Server Java Class Path and a Java Class Path. How can the Java Class Path be configured in this setup?  Setting the JVM classpath with the -cp option appears to update the CF Server Java Class Path..

Actually the -classpath option for the JVM can not be used since JBoss is started with the -jar option which means the other classpath settings are ignored.

Specifying add-on jars in the cfusion.ear/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file in the Class-Path: clause makes the jars available to JBoss, but it does not update the ColdFusion Java Class Path
