Hi,
I've just realized that DSpace tries to be helpful and print the Java
JDK vendor in the control panel, but gets it utterly wrong and is
ultimately misleading. For example:
Java Runtime Environment Vendor: Oracle Corporation
But in reality, we're using OpenJDK:
[aorth@dspace: ~]$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_21"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.3.9)
(7u21-2.3.9-0ubuntu0.12.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)
I guess DSpace is using the wrong string to determine the vendor, ie:
java.vendor=Oracle Corporation
When it should probably be using:
java.vm.name=OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM
We were recently working with a vendor (@mire!) and we told them to test
their addons with Oracle JDK, as it appeared that's what we were using.
I think it's more relevant to report the implementation vendor, not the
specification vendor here.
If I make an issue on Jira and a GitHub commit, would people appreciate
that?
Cheers,
