             Summary: improve feedback of ant try for OpenJDK
                 Key: NETBEANS-257
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-257
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 9.0
         Environment: Ubuntu 17.10
            Reporter: Karl Richter


After building with `ant` in a cleaned `git` clone, I get the recommendation to 
run with a 9.x JDK in order to avoid the download of a library. That's not 
possible intuitively because `env JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64 
ant tryme` fails due to `tryme:
     [exec] Cannot find java. Please use the --jdkhome switch.` and I have no 
idea how to pass the `--jdkhome` switch through `ant`. Please add information 
to the error message (there's no need to explain it here, I'll just wait for 
the fix and figure it out from the new feedback).

experienced with 9.0-alpha-rc2-353-g74d81e7c9
