When you use java -jar to launch your application you should add the jogamp jar
names to the Class-Path: entry of the
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file, that is found inside your MinimalEngineDemo.jar

example: you want your
MinimalEngineDemo.jar META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
to at least contain
Class-Path: gluegen-rt.jar jogl-all.jar

META-INF/MANIFEST.MF Class-Path: configuration for -jar use is explained in:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/jar/manifestindex.html
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/jar/downman.html


Your application folder will then look like:
MinimalEngineDemo.jar
gluegen-rt.jar
jogl-all.jar
gluegen-rt-natives-linux-amd64.jar
jogl-all-natives-linux-amd64.jar
... add one copy of natives for all platforms you want to support.

You can then start your application using the most simple command line:
java -jar MinimalEngineDemo.jar

JogAmp is designed to locate the native library jars that contain the .dll
and .so files next
to the used gluegen-rt.jar and jogl-all.jar automatically thats why you do
not need to add the
gluegen-rt-natives-*.jar and jogl-all-natives-*.jar to the Class-Path:
inside the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
This is explained in:
