# Spring Boot - Loader
The Spring Boot Loader module allows JAR and WAR files that contain nested dependencies
to be run using `java -jar archive.jar`.
The Spring Boot Loader module allows JAR and WAR files that contain
nested dependencies to be run using `java -jar archive.jar`. There are
3 launcher classes (`JarLauncher`, `WarLauncher` and
`PropertiesLauncher`). Their purpose is to load resources (.class
files etc.) from nested JAR files or JAR files in directories (as
opposed to explicitly on the classpath). In the case of the
`[Jar|War]Launcher` the nested paths are fixed `(lib/*.jar` and
`lib-provided/*.jar` for the WAR case) so you just add extra JARs in
those locations if you want more. The `PropertiesLauncher` looks in
`lib/` by default, but you can add additional locations by setting an
environment variable `LOADER_PATH`or `loader.path` in
`application.properties` (colon-separated list of directories).
