Usage of classpath

My question is usage of classpath environment variable is limited to java onl开发者_Go百科y ? Are there any other language/script is also consuming classpath variable ?

CLASSPATH is where the Java Virtual Machine searches for libraries to load. If you're using a language that isn't tied to the JVM, that variable is very likely to be ignored.

This Wikipedia link has a list of JVM languages, so if you aren't using one of them, you aren't using the CLASSPATH variable.
