Looks like we have a problem with Cygwin again. I updated all of the scripts to use -classpath instead of -jar. This was done in order to move away from composite jar files (such as merlin cli and repository main) which themselves were creating a potential source or error if not built correctly.
However, the resulting classpath is too long when expanded in Cygwin. Prior to expansion the classpath is generated by magic as :
MERLIN_CLASSPATH= $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/repository/jars/avalon-repository-main-SNAPSHOT.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/repository/jars/avalon-repository-spi-2.0.0.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/repository/jars/avalon-repository-api-SNAPSHOT.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/repository/jars/avalon-repository-util-2.0.0.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/util/jars/avalon-util-exception-1.0.0.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/util/jars/avalon-util-env-1.1.1.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/util/jars/avalon-util-i18n-1.0.0.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/util/jars/avalon-util-criteria-1.1.0.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/util/jars/avalon-util-defaults-SNAPSHOT.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/commons-cli/jars/commons-cli-1.0.jar: $MERLIN_HOME/system/avalon/merlin/jars/avalon-merlin-cli-SNAPSHOT.jar
I'm thinking that now may be the moment to update the repository package to add support for the transfer of a command line String[] to the repository InitialContext - and from this push cli handling (and class dependency) into the loaded factory.
This would eliminate the merlin-cli package which in turn would eliminate the necessity to re-install merlin. Instead the re-installation is as minimum, the setting of a single property - the merlin implementation artifact uri.
Any thoughts on this before I start dabbling?
Stephen.
