[kepler-dev] classpath too long

[Chase, Jared M]

Hi Christopher,

I am setting up Kepler with svn using the instructions.  We are using kepler-2.0.

I am running into the classpath issue on both windows xp and windows 7.

We haven't tried using eclipse.

In our application architecture, kepler is invoked using the following command.  I attached the exception that I receive.
 
java -classpath "%KEPLER%\kepler-2.0.jar" org.kepler.build.runner.Kepler -runwf "c:\path\to\workflow.moml" -nogui

Thanks for your help!
Jared

Hi Jared,
This seems like a serious limitation.
Just to be sure, I'm assuming that you are setting up Kepler with svn, as per the instructions at
https://kepler-project.org/developers/teams/build/systems/build-system/extension-build-system

When do you see the error?  When you invoke Kepler via the ant script?

What version of Windows are you running?

Did you try using Eclipse?  See
https://kepler-project.org/developers/reference/kepler-and-eclipse

For further background information about the long class path issue, see
