I think there might be a problem with environment variable handling.

What is the expected behaviour when an environment variable doesn't
exist?

For example, if I put the following in my run-path:

  $CLASSPATH
  ~/projects/myproj.jar

and CLASSPATH doesn't exist?

The current code seems to throw an error and stop the code working. 

jde-compile-plus (the module I wrote which handled resolving names,
including env var handling) used to catch such errors and ignore
them.

Would that be usefull functionality for the JDE or is it better to
see the error?


Perhaps a compromise would be a message alert but to not let the
error stop the operation?
