Rafael Jaimes updated DRILL-7695:
---------------------------------
Summary: java (JDK) check (was: java JDK check)
> java (JDK) check
> ----------------
>
> Key: DRILL-7695
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-7695
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Rafael Jaimes
> Priority: Trivial
>
> The 10 minute tutorial suggests 'java -version' to check if a JDK is
> installed. I believe it only shows the JRE. Because OpenJDK includes a JRE
> variant only, it can sometimes be confusing as to whether someone who's
> installed an openjdk package actually has the full JDK or just a JRE.
> I believe the better command is: '{{javac -version}}' to check for the
> existence of a java compiler, which should be better represented of having a
> JDK installed.
> On my Red Hat 7 system, I installed java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel.x86_64
>
> >>> javac -version
> javac 1.8.0_242
