Add location of jvm.dll to path #11

Open rpavlik opened 12 years ago

rpavlik commented 12 years ago

At runtime (when init is called), we should find the jre installation and the jvm file, and then add it to the PATH environment variable before calling Voce's init.

Do you think this would fix issue #4? If so, do you have suggestions on how to accomplish this? This would be setting PATH environment variables through Lua? I guess I'm still not sure how your SearchPath.h file fits into this.

rpavlik commented 12 years ago

SearchPath.h doesn't fit into this particular bug at all. Unfortunately "path" is just a very overloaded word. Yes, it might work.

You may be able to use this, though I'd prefer the environment variable route: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686203
