Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MNG-7010:
--------------------------------------------
Looks like that would work. I don't know if there's a more official way to do
this:
$ ls /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_172.jdk/Contents/Home/bin
appletviewer javah jjs jvisualvm schemagen
extcheck javap jmap keytool serialver
idlj javapackager jmc native2ascii servertool
jar jcmd jps orbd tnameserv
jarsigner jconsole jrunscript pack200 unpack200
java jdb jsadebugd policytool wsgen
javac jdeps jstack rmic wsimport
javadoc jhat jstat rmid xjc
javafxpackager jinfo jstatd rmiregistry
(base) ~$ ls
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_172.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
COPYRIGHT THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.txt
LICENSE Welcome.html
README bin
THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME-JAVAFX.txt lib
$ ls /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_172.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin
java orbd rmid tnameserv
jjs pack200 rmiregistry unpack200
keytool policytool servertool
> omit "NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE" except when that is the

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.0.x-candidate, 3.8.x-candidate

>
> Got this message a bunch today:
>
> $ mvn verify
> The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
> This environment variable is needed to run this program
> NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE
>
> fair enough. My JAVA_HOME is broken, for reasons. However the problem is
> **not** that it points to a JDK instead of a JRE. Maven should omit "NB:
> JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE" except when that is the problem.
> Also, I have no idea what NB means here. Nota bene perhaps?
