Daniel Spiewak commented on BUILDR-289:
---------------------------------------
I'm pretty sure that rt.jar is part of the JRE spec, so there's really no way
that it *can't* be included. I see the error message when attempting to use
Commands::Java.java e.g. for running Specs:
Running tests in gll-combinators
Running java org.apache.buildr.SpecsSingletonRunner
sh: /bin/java: No such file or directory
> Verify JAVA_HOME for Improved Error Messages

> Key: BUILDR-289
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-289
> Project: Buildr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core features
> Affects Versions: 1.3.4
> Reporter: Daniel Spiewak
> Assignee: Daniel Spiewak
> Fix For: 1.3.5

>
> Buildr uses the JAVA_HOME environment variable for a number of core tasks.
> However, if that variable does not point to a valid JDK, the result will be a
> failure at some point with a generally confusing error message (usually
> something on the order of " /bin/java does not exist"). We should actually
> check to make sure that JAVA_HOME is valid before attempting to use it for
> the first time. This check could be as simple as looking for rt.jar and a
> few of the executables.
