http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14617 Windows environment information incorrect, or task is broken. [EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|RESOLVED |REOPENED Resolution|INVALID | ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-05 07:38 ------- Pulling a 98 box out of the closet, I checked and found that the "user.home" on Win98 is set to "C:\WINDOWS". I am not sure what JVM you were running, but I was running Sun's on 98SE. However, I disagree that the manual comment is valid. 1st flaw is that the version of Windows they referred to has long been End-of-Lifed. All newer versions use the "user.home" on a regular basis. 2nd is that their example SHOULD be placed under user.home on newer versions of Windows, as that is where ALL applications are expected to put their data. 3rd, "on the JVM that I tested" isn't really valid, since many JDKs (by vendors other than Sun or IBM) have not been fully implemented. The correct solution would be to point to ( http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/system/properties.html ) for further information on system properties. The user.home solution is completely valid on any current OS. As is, though, the manual is wrong.
