Under JDK1.1.4 the following line will start my program:

/usr/local/java1.1/bin/java -DLprCmd="/usr/bin/lp -d%P% %O% -c %F%" -DCparRoot=${CPARROOT} -DTmpRoot=${HOME} -DMailList=${MAILLIST} -DMailSubject="CIT Report" -DPopServer=${POPSERVER} citMain

Changing this to use JRE as follows:

/usr/local/java1.1rt/bin/jre -DLprCmd="/usr/bin/lp -d%P% %O% -c %F%" -DCparRoot=${CPARROOT} -DTmpRoot=${HOME} -DMailList=${MAILLIST} -DMailSubject="CIT Report" -DPopServer=${POPSERVER} citMain

I get a message saying %O% class not found. It seems like jre does not like
spaces in the -D even though they are surrounded by "". I tried
to even quote the spaces and still did not work. I tried placing the
quotes everywhere I could think of. After replacing those spaces with
'_' (Knowing that it would no longer work), it just proceeded down the
command line telling me the 'Report' class was not found. Another space
in a '-D'.

(All env. are defined in the shell script that starts the program.)

Full Shell script.

This was updated from a JDK1.02 where their were no
printing api, so I envented my own printing class, which requires
the command string to go out to the printer.
