Fixes #383

~ in xml.extension.jars was not expanded, so a path like ~/my-ext.jar was never found.

This replaces a leading ~ with the home directory before the paths are looked up. Other paths are unchanged.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Jar paths beginning with ~, ~/, or ~\ resolve from the current user’s home directory before matching files. Other jar paths continue to be matched as entered.
    • Paths contributed by extensions are not expanded and continue to be processed as provided.

The plugin expands leading ~, ~/, and ~\ in JAR paths to the current user’s home directory before globbing. Other paths remain unchanged.

Changes: JAR path expansion

Explanation

Issue #383 requires support for resolving ~ in xml.extension.jars. The current change adds expandHome and applies it to each configured JAR path before glob lookup. It handles ~, ~/, and ~\ prefixes and leaves other paths unchanged. This satisfies the coding requirement. Issue #383 specifies no additional automated-test requirement.

Warning
