First off:
http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=235666
is the discussion thread at the forum.
Byron:
Please respond there.
Another point: I agree that we should change the launcher to take
the environmental classpath and put that in -Dcom.sun.aas.ClassPathSuffix
instead of appending it to -cp. There is a subtle difference in the two.
Byron: I would request you to do three things:
- Respond to the thread.
- Create an RFE that makes launcher modify -Dcom.sun.aas.ClassPathSuffix
by the environment classpath when env-classpath-ignored=false
- Create another RFE which enables:
-DFoo=$ENV{"BAR"} to translate to System.getEnv("BAR");
Thanks,
Kedar
