Hi Russell, Unfortunately, the app in question is not mine to change. It is a third party one that we write components for, so I need to feed it what is needed from maven.

What you get when you use it in a POM is the string representation. You would have to get your program to translate it into a class path. Since your app is taking it as a parameter, it should be able to do that. Just strip off the beginning and ending brackets and split the string at the commas.

I need it to look just like a normal classpath with the platform appropriate separators. In my case that would be a : for I am on a linux box. Instead that property gives me a comma delimited list that seems to also start with a [. Is there some way to transform that property into what I need or is there another property out there that will give me what I want?

Is there a way to read the current classpath into a variable or reference it in any way? I have tried multiple different properties found via Google, but none of them have the data I need.
