It appears to be true for both the appbundler project and the infinitekind 
branch of that, that nothing is done to pass these to the launched java 
application. As near as I can tell, but I'm not 100% sure what I am looking for 
to pass that on. Something in the launch parameters?

While on this, is the appbundler project considered completedt? There has been 
very little mailing list message traffic for months and none from anyone I know 
of to be a project person?

The reason for asking on this issue is that I was looking to add R language JSR 
223 scripting support to my HalfPipe application based on this...

rscript - Java to R scripting interface
http://www.rforge.net/rscript/index.html

which has a dependency on…

JRI - Java/R Interface
http://rforge.net/JRI/

which works fine from Terminal but doesn't from an application because it 
doesn't find it's required environment variables and fails. Even though I did 
set them in the plist so not sure why that is. 

The code appears OS X savvy to the point of knowing to check for the R 
framework in the absence of the environmental variable.  There then seem to be 
workarounds like setting the environment variable itself with a setenv native 
call. Or going directly after the file(s) by absolute path. The failing error 
is in the native code, not sure why the workarounds don't avoid it. But for now 
anyhow it appears to be a show stopper for java application use of this code.
