Re: [dtp-dev] chages in the jarList property delimiter

[brian.fitzpatrick@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hey Roy...

This was done to address a ton of cross-platform
issues we were having. 

We can try and put in a work-around
for the older jar list delimiter, but I'm not quite sure (and this is I
believe why there isn't one now) how to determine which method the jar
list is using...

Please open a bugzilla entry and provide
any suggestions you may have however and there's still time to get it in
for 1.6.1.

Subject	[dtp-dev] chages in the jarList property delimiter

Hello,
As we moved from 1.5 to 1.6 the way a jarList property
(in the driver extension) is parsed was changed.
In the good old days of 1.5 - the delimiter was defined
as “,”
In 1.6 this delimiter was changed to File.PathDelimiterChar
(platform dependent)
 
This change results in:
1.        extension
points that were written to 1.5 are now broken
2.        if
one uses “;” as delimiter - it doesn’t work on UNIX, and if one uses
“:” as delimiter – it doesn’t work on MS Windows.
 
Please tell me if I am missing something.
If not I think that we should revert it and set it to
“,” back again.
