[jira] Updated: (HARMONY-116) strange exec behaviour with harmony vme/classlib

["Mark Hindess (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-116?page=all ]

Mark Hindess updated HARMONY-116:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: exec-path-broken.tar.gz

When running ant on the sun jvm gcc is correctly executed both times.  Running ant on harmony then the failure case executes the wrong command (or just fails if you remove the dummy gcc from the basedir).

> I'm seeing very odd behaviour from ant exec tasks that set environment variables - such as the one in the security natives.  The exec is failing with failed to execute command.  Worse still if I create a matching executable in the basedir then that gets executed even if basedir is not in the path.  This would be a potential security problem in other situations.  I'll attach a test case shortly.
