Gunchin Aleksey commented on MNG-5606:
--------------------------------------
People tend to interpret that "defacto standard" as they want. Maven have
plugins, I have many other java soft on my workstation. Sometimes they require
different things JAVA_HOME to point to. Javafx for example is in jre and not in
jdk. Having two env vars allows to describe that precisely system-wide. Or else
one have to give every program its own launch bat/sh script.
> maven should use JDK_HOME env var if present

> JAVA_HOME is for jre, but maven searches for javac there.
> One can add
> @if not "%JDK_HOME%" == "" set JAVA_HOME="%JDK_HOME%"
> to mvn.bat
> and the analogue string to .sh script
