David Reiss commented on THRIFT-300:
------------------------------------
+1. ax_java.m4 was imported from an autoconf macro archive, not written as
part of Thrift. It has caused other problems for us as well. In addition, it
is GPL, which is pretty unusual for autoconf macros and makes it unclear
whether it can be included in an Apache release. I would be 100% in favor of
replacing it. If no one else can find or a better one, I can give it a shot.
> configure shouldn't abruptly stop when you don't have Java

> Key: THRIFT-300
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-300
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Compiler (Java)
> Reporter: T Jake Luciani
> Priority: Minor
>
> when you run configure with no options you get the following error.
> checking for javac... no
> configure: error: no acceptable Java compiler found in $PATH
> I think this should continue and just not include java in the build.
> Perhaps configure should print a summary of components it will build at the
> end of the script since we have so many. Thoughts?
