[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #18, patch #9439 (project octave):

@Sebastian

I'm still not able to get Java working, but have some comments/questions about
the proposed patch.

The text below is from you configure log attached to comment #11.


  Java home:                    
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.jdk/Contents/Home
  Java JVM path:                
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.jdk/Contents/Home/lib/server
  Java CPPFLAGS:                
-I/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.jdk/Contents/Home/include
-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home/include
-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Headers
-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Headers
  Java libraries:                


After installing Java, I do not see a "Home" directory in
"/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/". I don't expect including a
non-existent directory will break anything, but either our Java installs have
produced different results, or the patch should be cleaned up. Would you
verify this directory exists for you (I'm running macOS High Sierra -
10.13.1).

Also, shouldn't the Java framework (i.e. "-Wl,-framework,JavaVM") be specified
in "Java libraries"?
