[1.9] The "." dir should not be in load path, but we also put it in CLASSPATH
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-5273
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-5273
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Ruby 1.9
Reporter: Charles Oliver Nutter
Assignee: Thomas E Enebo
Fix For: JRuby 1.6
Ruby 1.9 no longer includes the "." dir in the default load path. We can make
this change, and JRUBY-5251 tracks the progress of that fix (and a related
bug). However, we also include "." in the default CLASSPATH, which means even
if it's not in load path, we will eventually still find resources in the
current directory.
There are a couple possible routes here:
* Ignore it, and just accept that CLASSPATH and load path are different. I'm
not sure this is an option, since it will cause us to always deviate on whether
we find resources in the current directory.
* At startup, don't include . in CLASSPATH. Currently, in both jruby.bash and
the native launcher, I *think* we include "." explicitly. We could turn that
off, if so.
Of course, system-global CLASSPATH settings would be impossible to modify.
