java codec and RLGLUE_HOST env var

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

Having trouble getting the java codec to notice the contents of the
RLGLUE_HOST environmental variable. Tried in linux, windows, and
windows/cygwin, all to no avail. In the same shell, I am able to run
programs using the C codec, and they read the variable correctly and
connect the the right host.

Yes.  The first updates to the codecs was done breadth first, so we just wanted 
to
get the really *core* stuff working.

This is related to issue 34.  Since I now know that this is a priority for you, 
 I
will get it done immediately (in the next few hours).

I'll also have a beta version of the new task spec and task spec parser 
available at
that time.

Thanks, Brian. On the ball as always :)

K, this should be working now for environments, agents, and experiments.

The first attempt at a task spec parser is in there as well.  I'm going to try 
and
use this one instead of the one in RLVizLib, so the RLVizLib tasks spec parser 
might
be in a bit of flux for a little bit, but I'll try and make sure its all working
before I commit.
