The test code executes java processes by just executing java instead of using a
full path. This may cause the wrong java to be picked up.

Key: DERBY-3840
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3840
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Newcomer, Test
Affects Versions: 10.5.0.0
Reporter: Kathey Marsden
There are places in the code where we execute a java process. e.g.
BaseTestCase.assertExecJavaCmdAsExpected where we execcute a java process and
just call "java". In windows at least the new shell created for the exec'ed
process does not share the parent process path but rather picks up the path
from the Windows System variables. This can cause the wrong java to be picked
up. Also the method does not work for j9 because it calls "java" instead of
the actual executable name. Perhaps we should have a method:
public static final String getJavaExecutableName() {
String vmname = getSystemProperty("com.ibm.oti.vm.exe");
if (vmname == null)
vmname = getSystemProperty("java.home") + File.pathSeparator +
"java";
return vmname;
}
There are also issues with this in NetworkServerControlApiTest.
NetworkServerTestSetup and the replication tests and maybe others as well.
