Java Runtime.getRuntime().exec() appears to be overwriting $PATH

Question

For a project to automate some mutation adequacy testing, I\'m trying to make GoLang from source from inside a Java program. I have been able to make it from source in the Termi

Runtime.exec was replaced by ProcessBuilder twelve years ago, as part of Java 1.5.

Among its many superior features is the ability to add to the existing environment:

ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder("./all.bash");
builder.inheritIO();

builder.directory(
    new File(System.getProperty("user.home") + "/Desktop/go/src"));

builder.environment().put("CC", "/usr/bin/clang");
builder.environment().put("GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP", "/usr/local/go");
builder.environment().put("CGO_ENABLED", "0");

builder.start();
