Unix/windows - sh/bat file problem

[kayanaat sidiqui]

Hi,

I am using batch this batch file-

@echo off

set CONFIG_ROOT=C:\settings
set LIB=libs
set CONF=conf

rem Windows XP Syntax
set IE_CLASSPATH=%CONF%/misc
setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
FOR /R .\%LIB% %%G IN (*.jar) DO set IE_CLASSPATH=!IE_CLASSPATH!;%LIB%\%%~nxG

"%JAVA_HOME%"\bin\java -cp %IE_CLASSPATH% -DConfigRoot=$CONFIG_ROOT -Xmx512m com.MyClass

Also this sh file-

#!/bin/sh

export CONFIG_ROOT=/settings
export LIB=libs
export CONF=conf

export IE_CLASSPATH="$CONF:$CONF/misc"

for x in $LIB/*.jar; do
    IE_CLASSPATH=$IE_CLASSPATH:$x
done

if [ -z "$JAVA_HOME" ] ; then
	echo "JAVA_HOME envrionment variable must be set"
	exit 1;
fi

echo $IE_CLASSPATH

"$JAVA_HOME"/bin/java -cp "$IE_CLASSPATH" -DConfigRoot="$CONFIG_ROOT" -Xmx512m com.MyClass $@

Both of these files were working fine until i introduced "CONFIG_ROOT".

if i am putting in batch file this way it's doing fine--
-DConfigRoot="c:/settings" -

Can you please tell me what i am missing?

Thanks,
Kaya.

The '$' dereferences environment variables in Unix shells. The leading and trailing '%' dereferences the same in Windows. You have it right with every other variable in your script.
