A minor change as follows would allow us to bypass the environment check
under
normal circumstances without breaking any other code. The current code in
Main.java is:
package org.apache.avalon.merlin.cli;
.
private static String getMerlinHomePath()
.
.
String merlin =
System.getProperty(
"merlin.home",
Env.getEnvVariable( "MERLIN_HOME" ) );
if( null != merlin ) return merlin;
return System.getProperty( "user.home" )
+ File.separator + ".merlin";
Just changing it to this would help anyone who was prepared to define a
system property
"merlin.home" on the command line:
String merlin =
System.getProperty( "merlin.home" );
if (merlin == null)
merlin = Env.getEnvVariable( "MERLIN_HOME" );
if( null != merlin ) return merlin;
return System.getProperty( "user.home" )
+ File.separator + ".merlin";
I think the Env problem may still need to be addressed in general, and the
other answers
to this thread seem to be doing a good job looking at the issues.
