-------------------------------------

             Summary: Add more support to validate the -Dbootclasspath given 
for javadocs generate
                 Key: LUCENE-5355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5355
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: general/build
    Affects Versions: 4.6
         Environment: MacOSX AppleJDK6
            Reporter: Uwe Schindler
             Fix For: 5.0, 4.7


When Simon created the nice looking javadocs for LuSolr 4.6, he just copypasted 
the command line from 
http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/HowToGenerateNiceJavadocs

Unfortunately this does not work with AppleJDK6, because it has no rt.jar! The 
rt.jar file is there in a completely different directory and is named 
classes.jar. I had a similar problem when I wanted to regenerate the Javadocs 
on my Linux box, but specified {{-Dbootclasspath}} with shell specials (e.g., 
{{~}} for homedir).

This patch will assist the user and will "validate" the given bootclasspath, so 
it points to a JAR file that actually contains the runtime. Also to make life 
easier, instead of {{-Dbootclasspath}} you can set {{-Dbootjdk}} to the JDK 
homefolder (same like JAVA_HOME) and ANT will figure out if it is Apple or 
Oracle or maybe only a JRE.

In the meantime, I regenerated the 4.6 Javadocs with correct bootclasspath.
