Given you have followed
VSCode docs[
^], would lean on jar being marked unsafe the reason here.
If using windows:
Right click on it and go properties, then select permissions and check "Allow executing file as program"
If using Mac, in terminal:
sudo chmod +x /home/xxxx/Downloads/joinery-dataframe-1.9-jar
Ps: Be sure to make sure you got it from a trusted source.
OR
for any OS, try in terminal/cmd:
java -jar /home/xxxx/Downloads/joinery-dataframe-1.9-jar
You can also do it manually if for some reason GUI is still not allowing (like
this reported issue[
^]):
1. Open
.vscode/settings.json
file (if not present, you can create one)
2. add required jar file there as shown below. (mostly all the jar files present in lib directory will be included + your new jar located outside the project directory)
{
"java.project.referencedLibraries": [
"lib/**/*.jar",
"/home/xxxx/Downloads/joinery-dataframe-1.9-jar"
]
}
