---------------------------------------
Summary: unit test rule method "withTempWorkingDir()" can cause
code to malfunction
Key: GEODE-4244
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-4244
Project: Geode
Issue Type: Bug
Components: management
Reporter: Bruce Schuchardt
We have a number of unit test Rules that offer a withTempWorkingDir() method
that supposedly changes the current working directory of the JVM to a temporary
folder. This method merely sets the system property "user.dir" to that
directory's path - it does not change the actual working directory of the
process.
Because of this any file/io using paths relative to the current working
directory may malfunction because they refer to the actual current working
directory and not user.dir.
The withTempWorkingDir() methods need to have a warning about this.
