Mark,

If the application needs to run on the same machine as the DB server (not a great idea) I would just install the latest JDK or JRE under /usr/local and let the developers customize as needed. Its probably not a good idea to modify the Oracle provided JRE.

That said, usually a well packaged Java application will have copies of whatever libraries (jars) it needs and set an appropriate CLASSPATH so it can find them. Usually you do not need to modify the JDK/JRE installation.
