             Summary: Junit tests in eclipse fail due to Classloader poorly parsing classpath locations
                 Key: ACCUMULO-914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-914
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: start
    Affects Versions: 1.4.2
         Environment: eclipse, ubuntu 12.04
            Reporter: John Vines
            Assignee: John Vines
             Fix For: 1.5.0, 1.4.3


Accumulo uses $ACCUMULO_HOME/lib/ext/[.*].jar to find files to watch. If ACCUMULO_HOME isn't set (like in a test environment such as eclipse), it drops the $ACCUMULO_HOME. From there, it ends up turning it into watching /lib. On OSX, which a majority of the developers here use, it's not an issue. However, watching /lib introduces a heapload of issues. I do not know why this does not affect mvn tests, I didn't dig into it.

I think if ACCUMULO_HOME isn't set, we should just ignore that directory (instead of inserting empty string for the portion).
