[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBAS-8670) Add support for symlinked bin/*.sh files

Add support for symlinked bin/*.sh files ---------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-8670 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8670 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Patch Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 6.0.0.CR1 Reporter: Emmanuel Bernard Assignee: Emmanuel Bernard Priority: Minor Labels: patch Fix For: 6.0.0.Final Attachments: JBAS-8670-symlink.patch I was working on packagin JBoss AS into homebrew (Mac OS packaging system) and found a limitation in our command scripts. They assume that the script has not been symlinked and hence fail to find the right jars upon symlinked scripts. Basically, they do {code} DIRNAME=`dirname $0` PROGNAME=`basename $0` {code} and should do {code} # Extract the directory and the program name # takes care of symlinks PRG="$0" while [ -h "$PRG" ] ; do ls=`ls -ld "$PRG"` link=`expr "$ls" : '.*-> \(.*\)$'` if expr "$link" : '/.*' > /dev/null; then PRG="$link" else PRG="`dirname "$PRG"`/$link" fi done DIRNAME=`dirname "$PRG"` PROGNAME=`basename "$PRG"` {code}
