RE: [Jython-dev] updated javaos.py

[brian z. <bz...@zi...>]

Well I'm a pessimist and I have the first bug in javaos.py.

I'm on a Win2K box running Cygwin bash and when I execute `env` I get
the following (abbreviated for readability):

WINDIR=C:\WINNT
USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\brian zimmer
PS1=\[\033]0;\w\007
\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$
ANT_HOME=//d/java/third/apache/jakarta-ant-1.3
PROGRAMFILES=C:\Program Files
USER=bzimmer

You'll notice the PS1 variable wraps to a new line and causes a
ValueError to be thrown:

Jython 2.1b1 on java1.3.0 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.environ
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in ?
  File "d:\home\development\sourceforge\jython\Lib\javaos.py", line 127,
in __repr__
  File "d:\home\development\sourceforge\jython\Lib\javaos.py", line 122,
in _LazyDict__populate
  File "d:\home\development\sourceforge\jython\Lib\javaos.py", line 273,
in _getEnvironment
ValueError: substring not found in string.index
>>>

For the moment I've just wrapped it in a try/except block but then the
value of the PS1 variable is truncated in the .environ dictionary.

thanks,

brian
