Re: [Dltk-dev] Environment variable not appended by launcher

[Alex Panchenko <alex@xxxxxxxxx>]

in 0.95 append does not replace already defined values (bug)
in 1.0 append replaces already defined values (fixed)

It was not suppose to concatenate already defined and new values since that is suitable only for some of the environment variables.

Regards,
Alex

Subject: [Dltk-dev] Environment variable not appended by launcher

Thanks for the help launching JRuby.  I used the Environment tab in the 
launch configuration dialog to set the CLASSPATH to 
C:\Workspace\ZooGlue\bin.

However, this only worked when I selected 'Replace native environment 
with specified environment'.

When I selected 'Append environment to native environment', I expected 
my specified path to be appended to the CLASSPATH variable read by the 
jruby.bat file.  But it was ignored.  I added some print statements to 
jruby.bat to illuminate the CLASSPATH variable that it saw, and it was 
unaffected by 'Append'.

Is this a bug, or a misunderstanding?
