[gentoo-dev] javaws always use icedtea

[Samuel Bernardo]

Hello,

I'm using oracle jdk as default jvm, but when I review java-config
result after setting oracle-jdk-bin as prefered jvm, javaws continues to
start icedtea version.

Analysing the script /usr/libexec/eselect-java/run-java-tool.bash I
realised that itweb-javaws is hardcoded:

> if [ "${tool}" = "javaws" ] && [ -x "/usr/bin/itweb-javaws" ]; then 
>         exec "/usr/bin/itweb-javaws" "${@}" 
> fi 

Shouldn't this also change when java-config defines new predefined jvm?

Thanks for any clarification about this implementation in the mentioned
script.
The ebuild that installs the script is app-eselect/eselect-java and I
would like to change this script to also set javaws when predefining jvm.

I also published this message in the gentoo forum:
