In Eclipse, I add a jar library using

project -> build path ->configure build path

What is the equivalent in VisualStudioCode? I had a look into launch.json. There is a classpath defined. Adding jars to this classpath (array) variable seems to have no effect.

Essentially, this is a duplicate question of
Visual Studio Java Language Support add jar
But that question is unanswered.

This is such an extremely basic question, that I really don't understand not to find a solution for it in Microsoft's documentation or via Google search.

  I am not sure that vscode is really adapted for Java development but anyway this will depend on which extension you will install to develop in Java. What have you installed??? Furthermore, whatever the one you chose, I suggest you to use Maven or Gradle to manage you dependencies.

A terrible solution, but for me it works.
(Assuming maven is installed).

Locate your maven repository directory, for me it is:

/Users/username/.m2/repository

Then create the path required following the package name.
If you don't know the package name you can rename the .jar to a .zip and extract the content.

Also create a version number, if you don't have one then make one up.
Here is a example of a structure that I created for byte-buddy-agent since that does not have a maven snippet.

Having done that you edit pom.xml and add something among the lines of:

<dependency>
 <groupId>net.bytebuddyagent</groupId>
 <artifactId>byte-buddy-agent</artifactId>
 <version>1.9.8</version>
</dependency>

Save the file, reload the changes, and you should be good to go.
A bunch of files should be created in the directory.
