The java aspect looks like a red herring as not relevant to the problem. You want to run a *nix shell script and presumably don't want to write your own bat file doing the same job.
I'm probably missing something but given that there's cygwin, and it's a *nux script, what about just editing the script for your computer, amending the paths in the script, with a find and replace, so /ABC/XYZ is replaced with /cygdrive/c/ABC/XYZ and running the script in cygwin. --- On Fri, 18/5/12, Earnie Boyd wrote: > From: Earnie Boyd > Subject: Re: Making Unix like paths work when using java program from Cygwin > To: cygwin > Date: Friday, 18 May, 2012, 15:58 > On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 9:22 AM, > Csaba Raduly wrote: > > On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 1:51 PM, Earnie Boyd wrote: > >> On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 4:56 AM, himoundary wrote: > >>> > >>> I am working in a team where everyone else has > a Linux/Mac OS X workstation, > >>> but I have a windows workstation.
