[CMake] Overriding Win-Registry search in UseJNI.cmake
Hello, I am working with CMake 2.8 and using UseJNI.cmake I have a JDK installed locally (registered in Win-Registry) but want to configure a project to use a different JDK lying on my disk. Looking at UseJNI.cmake I find that the environment variable JAVA_HOME could be handy, but unfortunately UseJNI prefers the Windows-Registry entries above all other search paths. Did I miss something? Shall I file an issue?

For example: set(JAVA_AWT_LIBRARY /full/path/to/libjawt.a CACHE FILEPATH jawt library) find_package(JNI) If a variable is already set before calling a find_* command, then the find is a no-op and it trusts that you've set it correctly.

HTH, David Hi David, ok. I thought it could even be easier ;) If I disable the win-Registry lookup stuff and set JAVA_HOME appropriately then everything is found perfectly. And if disabling would be just changing the order of search paths this would be more control for me and still powerful (i.e., when not using JAVA_HOME). Nevertheless, I can also live with your suggestion...

Nevertheless, I can also live with your suggestion... Thank you, Oliver Hi David, Thinking it over again, I am getting to like it less... Setting these variables is in fact the stuff that FindJNI does. For now I will live with a monkey patched version that allows disabling the registry search stuff. Is this an option for the core FindJNI.cmake too - i.e., introducing a means to disable win registry search?
