[jira] [Comment Edited] (EXEC-95) Program not found after setWorkingDirectory

["Siegfried Goeschl (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXEC-95?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15082046#comment-15082046 ]

----------------------------------------------------------------

After some digging through the code

* the WinNTCommandLauncher is copied from a very old ANT source file
* WinNTCommandLauncher is actually never used (the same goes for OS2CommandLauncher)

So the problem is completely unrelated to "WinNTCommandLauncher"

I assume that 

* "C:/user/script/" is not part of the PATH variable therefore the "myscript.cmd" was not found 
* I'm not sure about Windows here - it seems that the script is not picked up from the current working directory

> I would like to run my script from a different folder, so I tried to use the following line of code:
> String path = "C:/user/script/";
> CommandLine cmdLine = CommandLine.parse("myscript.cmd");
> DefaultExecutor executor = new DefaultExecutor();
> executor.setWorkingDirectory(new File(path));
> int exitValue = executor.execute(cmdLine);
> but I got an exception.
> I am using the following workaround:
> CommandLine cmdLine = CommandLine.parse(path+"/myscript.cmd");
> and it's working fine.
> The question is: are Executor and CommandLine related?
