Path seperator ':' for -Xbootclasspath must be ';' on Windows #1

Open Kerneels opened 11 years ago

Path seperator for the -Xbootclasspath command line parameter to java.exe on Windows need to be ';' and not ':' as is the case for nix apparently. This is a problem in the .properties files driving Ply. Note that in the ply.bat runner script the seperator is in fact ';' and that seems to work fine.

Fix is just to alter the *.properties files, replacing ':' with ';' where appropriate.

Yes, you are right. Sorry, I don't have a Windows box and no one I know using Ply does either and so Windows never gets tested. I'll work on fixing this as soon as I have time. Thank you for investigating and identifying the issue.

I'll make the windows files for you with the right seperator. Could they also work under Linux?
