Console Plugin on Windows

Submitted by Szaman2 on Thursday, 12 August, 2004 - 01:26

Does anyone else have problems with the way javac command works under windoze? When I choose the javac option from the menu the default value for the classpath variable is:

$CLASSPATH;C:\your\current\working\directory

Now this is wrong and gives me an illegal argument exception from javac. However if you switch $CLASSPATH to a proper windows system variable notation %CLASSPATH% all is well.

This is a really anoying me, and I could not get rid of despide installing new version of jedit, and the new version of console plugin. Unfortunately I don't know anyone else who has the same issue.

Could it be caused by my Cygwin install which probably hass an env variable $CLASSPATH defined?

one way to fix it

I had the same problem, so I dug around in the Console plugin, and here's the fix:
You will have to alter the file console.bsh in \.jedit\Console.jar\console

I used WinRAR, but you can open it in whatever zip program you want. Just make sure that after you extract and change the file, you put it back in the .jar, since that's what jedit will load.

make this change to the getBufferClassPath function:

//note: used to be "$CLASSPATH"
	return "%CLASSPATH%" + File.pathSeparator
		+ ConsolePlugin.getPackageRoot(buffer);

After you've patched that back into the .jar, you should be all set.
Ideally, you would do some check in that function to tell if you're running Windows or a Unix-type system, and return the appropriately-named environment variable - the given fix will just hardcode it to work on Win.
