Well, what I did as a workaround was to set the system property
"user.dir" in the interp. Then in my Java portions of the application
that needed to access a file was use: new File( "name"
).getCanonicalFile(). The 'canonical' methods use the current value of
"user.dir" to resolve the file name. Seems to work well. This way I
can run the Jacl 'cd' command and have it apply to the application's
workings.
Any reason not to set "user.dir" in the interp? I guess the
multi-thread issue is one. However, in my app which is heavily threaded
I only use one Interp. I guess I could wrap the system's cd command
with one of my own which set the system property.
