Thanks. Yet some more questions, sorry. 1. Is this location "stable", i.e. can one rely on it to always return this location, or would I need to include the system calls above to find libclient.dylib? (with or without filtering for "libclient.dylib") Or is "libclient.dylib" a sort of red herring and would other typical JDK files more reliably indicate a proper JDK presence? 2. In an earlier mail from you, I see you had JAVA_HOME set as follows: From: Alexander Hansen <alexanderk.hansen@gm...> - 2012-07-06 21:45 <quote> octave:1> getenv('JAVA_HOME') ans = /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home </quote> ==> Is there a particular reason to have it point all the way to ...../Contents/Home? (e.g., other programs needing a JAVA_HOME setting) IOW, would '/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk' suffice? Or is that JAVA_HOME setting you showed simply the setting that works for installing the Java package? (Sorry if these are stupid questions - I know beans about Mac OSX.)
