[Off-Topic] Re: java.io.tempdir Problems
It sounds like maybe there is some confusion between environment variables and system properties. java.io.tempdir is a system property which presumably means it can be set on the Java command line using -Djava.io.tempdir=foo This is different then anything getenv() would return since those would be environment variables. Some of which are reflected as differently named system properties. For example, I think java.io.tempdir defaults to the TEMP environment variable under Windows and perhaps TMP under Unix or something like that. I'd have to drill into javadocs to be sure. -Paul Michael McGrady wrote: I don't know if this is helpful or not, Martin, but if you attempt System.getenv(java.io.tempdir) [which is deprecated], you get as part of the error message getenv no longer supported, use properties and -D instead: java.io.tempdir.

Michael McGrady Martin, First, thanks for responding. Second, the entirety of the startup code setting my java.io.tempdir system property is after this note, but the value of the property is %CATALINA_HOME%\temp. The value of javax.servlet.context.tempdir is C:\crackwillow\work\Catalina\localhost\_ . Following the knowledge I gleaned from your question and specifications, I reset things in a plugin, and I now have the values at runtime of: javax.servlet.context.tempdir = C:\crackwillow\work\Catalina\localhost\_ -Djava.io.tempdir = C:/crackwillow/temp java.io.tempdir = C:/crackwillow/temp Prior to doing this, my values for both -Djava.io.tempdir and java.io.tempdir were null. I have kept the value of the java.io.tempdir in my at C:/crackwillow/temp. When I run the font program as previously indicated (see above), I still get the tmp files that do not go away. Their names are as follows: +~JF3174.tmp and they run consequtively. What do you think is up?
