Your setup must be different, because it apparently worked for you
with an empty CLASSPATH. I couldn't run Jacks at all without setting
CLASSPATH to find libgcj-3.4.jar.
Interestingly enough, this piece in _set_classpath in jacks.tcl omits
adding . to the CLASSPATH if it is empty:
# If adddot is true, then append . to the CLASSPATH
if {$CLASSPATH != "" && $adddot} {
append CLASSPATH ${PATH_SEP}
append CLASSPATH .
}
Does an empty CLASSPATH have some special meaning?
Bye,
Ulrich
