IRBApplet fails to start due to various security restrictions
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-1762
URL:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1762 Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Classes/Modules
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.x
Environment: Latest JRuby 1.1b1 built from today's trunk
Reporter: Vladimir Sizikov
Priority: Critical
Attachments: jirb-in-applet-fails-due-security.patch.patch
Any attempts to load org.jruby.demo.IRBApplet fail due to various security related issues.
The most critical one is NPE from LateLoadingLibrary (used when 'readline' is requested).
Also, when the NPE is resolved, IRBApplet is not very useful and dies when users try to open files and perform some other
basic things in the IRB.
The proposed patch closes most common issues, and when applied, JIRB is actually useful and working fine.
Note: I tested that "ant test" passes and executed rubinius spec to see that there are no major problems with the patch.
