[tcljava-user] Help accessing environment variables from Java and Jacl

[Omar E. J. V. <oma...@gm...>]

Hello everybody,

I'm working on a proyect made in Java that needs to execute tcl scripts.
This project is running on Linux.

So far I used tjc to compile simple tcl scripts and turn them into Java classes.
Then, from Java I executed the simple proc successfully.

Now that I'm adding more functionalities to the project, I add them to
the tcl script then I recompile and use those compiled classes in Java
again.

But I'm running into troubles here because the added functionalities
include sourcing a tcl script which access global variables like PATH.
The problem is: when I initialize the class, and the sourced script
tries to access PATH environment variable I get the following error:

tcl.lang.TclVarException ==> in Java
can't read "env(PATH)": no such element in array ==> result from
command execution

I verified that 'global env' is included in the proc that uses PATH
and I executed the script in command line and works correctly.

However when I compile the script with tjc and run it with Java I get
this error.

Please if you can give me some pointers to look at to fix this
problem, I''ll be happy to tried them :D

Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it
