Subject: Running Java application from within bash shell. How to?
Message-ID: <HPMM8Q00.K3J@mail1.igm.pt>

Hello,

I have been trying to get the freeware BHPViewer from Int (www.int.com), running under
W2k+Cygwin. The application runs in Java and relies on underlying layers: SU+BHP_SU,
(GNU - http://www.cwp.mines.edu/cwpcodes/) which have been compiled to run under
Cygwin successfully (thus extending the support beyond IRIX, Linux, Sun). The problem is that
the Java code, calls the Cygwin *.sh + *.exe. I solved the problems related to the CLASSPATH
and the Java interface launches, from within the Bash shell. However it seems to invoke
cmd.exe to execute the *.sh+*.exe. How do other people solve this problem in general?.
Replace the shell cmd.exe under ComSpec env variable?. Use another Java Cygwin specific
build?. Thank you.

Regards,
