Hi all, I'm toying around with boot and try to get my leiningen config converted to it.
My Clojure project uses a third-party Java library which uses a javax.tools.JavaCompiler to compile classes at runtime. By default, such a JavaCompiler compiles with the CLASSPATH which is the value of the "java.class.path" property. However, when run via boot I get (System/getProperty "java.class.path") ;=> "/home/horn/bin/boot" which is the boot shell script. Cause that's not a correct CLASSPATH, the JavaCompiler won't find any classes and error out. It seems boot puts the "real" CLASSPATH into the property "fake.class.path" or "boot.class.path" (I haven't found out what's exactly the difference). So if I'd call the JavaCompiler myself, I could use its getTask()'s options parameter to specify something like -cp (System/getProperty "fake.class.path"). But since the compiler is called internally in the lib I depend on, that approach won't work. Well, and IMHO having to consider properties defined by one specific build tool in application code doesn't seem right, too. What works is putting (System/setProperty "java.class.path" (System/getProperty "fake.class.path")) in my build.boot but I guess boot has a reason for messing with "java.class.path" and doing the above will defeat this purpose.
