> A short investigation shows that launcher parses -Djava.home passed on the command line. Later on while classlib is initialized the function readClassPathFromPropertiesFile calls properties_load with file name formed as ${java.home}/lib/boot/bootclasspath.properties. If this file is not found and properties_load, then no value is assigned to org.apache.harmony.boot.class.path.
> I think this system is wrong. The launcher should not pay attention to java.home passed on the command line. The location should be found from the executable path probably. RI doesn't crash or fail its boot classes when I specify bad -Djava.home on the command line.
