All,
I just pushed a changeset which significantly changes (improves?) the way
Java is detected if JAVA_HOME has not been set
(http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/56239ff815a3). There are
likely to be kinks which need working out and I particularly need feedback
from Mac OS X systems. Despite all those caveats, I think this is a much
better strategy for detection than having a laundry list of directories to
check for each operating system and distribution.
Sorry to say, but now Java isn't properly picked up any more on my Linux dev
box (Mageia-2).
All configure does now is echo the entered value for JAVA_HOME; the include
dirs etc are blank.
W/o JAVA_HOME it doesn't work better; after an hg update (pulling your very
changeset), configure ran again but after a while the build broke with
complaints about missing jni.h
Philip,
Since configure.ac was changed you need to run bootstrap in order to
regenerate the configure script before running it.
