Re: [Wrapper-user] Cascading configuration files

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Stefan,
    Well there is a good reason why you can't get this to work.   You 
found a bug. :-/
This actually has nothing to do with the use of cascading configuration 
files.  I was
setting new environment variables before doing any expansion of their 
values so
in this case, JARS variable was being set to the value "%JAR1%;%JAR2%"
rather than "test1.jar;test2.jar".
    Was this the problem that you were seeing?

    I have committed a fix to CVS and this will be in the 3.0.2 release. 
 I am waiting
for other users to test a couple other fixes, but it should be released 
soon.

    For now, you will need to avoid setting environment variables which 
reference
other variables themselves.  Change to the following:

set.JAR1=test1.jar
set.JAR2=test2.jar
set.JARS=test1.jar;test2.jar

    As a side note, though while building up a classpath like this will 
technically
work on windows platforms, the resulting config files will not be platform
dependent.  A better solution would be to actually set the
wrapper.java.classpath properties in the include file.  Set common 
values first
in the main class and then include other values in your cascading 
include file.

wrapper.conf:
---
wrapper.java.classpath.1=../lib/wrapper.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.2=../lib/common.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.3=../lib/default.jar
#include myconf.conf
---

myconf.conf:
---
wrapper.java.classpath.3=../lib/alt.jar
---

The 3rd classpath element would then be overridden if the myconf.conf
file exists.

Thanks for finding this.
Cheers,
Leif
