[Wrapper-user] Using wrapper on AIX

[Hayes, P. <Pet...@fm...>]

Hi,

I have just started using the wrapper on an AIX machine and have run
into a few issues.

The wrapper.java.library.path.append_system_path configuration parameter
does not use the LIBPATH environment variable on AIX, it looks for
LD_LIBRARY_PATH (for Solaris and Linux).  I haven't tested on HP-UX or
Mac OS X but those use the variables SHLIB_PATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
respectively.

My second issue is that it would seem to be a better implementation of
library path management if instead of setting the java system property
java.library.path, to instead just set the platform specific environment
variable in case a library has to load another library.  Any reason why
this wouldn't be better.

Finally, I need to control both the library path and the regular path
(PATH) for my applications and it would be good if the PATH was managed
for you through the configuration file in the same manner as library
path.

Thanks,
