java bindings can not be disabled

Currently it is not possible to disable building the java bindings. ./configure, ./configure --with-java=no, and ./configure --without-java all produce the same result:

    bindings:
            F77 :          no (--with-f77=)
        F90/F95 :          no (--with-f90=)
            JAVA:          yes (--with-java-home=not specified, JAVA=, JAVAC=/etc/java-config-2/current-system-vm/bin/javac, JAVAH=)
            SWIG:          no

Hi,

I am unable to reproduce your problem on any of my machines. The way nexus decides whether to build the java bindings is by seeing if JAVAC is set ... however it will only try and set JAVAC (and JAVA) if the --with-java-home option is specified. Looking at your output it would seem that JAVAC is set, but not JAVA, which suggests that you have an environment variable JAVAC set locally ... is that correct?
If that is the case, unsetting it should fix the problem for now ... i will try and make the nexus java test better

Regards,

Freddie

I am using Gentoo Linux, which appears to define JAVAC:

$ echo $JAVAC
/etc/java-config-2/current-system-vm/bin/javac

(In [987]) Change check for JAVA so it will work properly if JAVAC is defined externally
refs #99.

The problem should now be fixed in the latest 4.1 branch snapshot at http://download.nexusformat.org/kits/snapshots.shtml
