Summary0002951: FindJava.cmake: Javah header compiler detection and JAVA_FOUND
DescriptionFindJava.cmake doesn't search for Java's header
compiler (javah on Un*x). Add such a detection.
Additionaly, add a JAVA_FOUND boolean variable
that states wether java package was properly
detected or found. (well some other Modules
do that, and it is very convenient for the caller, but is it a good Module practice?).
See attached file which I currently use as extension.
Thanks !

I think you may want to look at FindJNI.cmake

Concerning FindJNI.cmake (and with my very low understanding of Java) it basically looks for the path to java header files (and library). Hence the result of FindJNI.cmake is a path to headers (and a path to a java library).
My request was on the java's C header compiler which is a binary (named javah on linux) which (excerpt from the man pages):
   generates C header and source files that are needed
   to implement native methods. The generated header
   and source files are used by C programs to
   reference instance variables of an object from
   native source code.
Hence, as I understand it FindJNI.cmake and my request seem to serve quite different purposes (hummm, don't quote me on this :-)
   Respectfully yours.

I would support this feature request. It's very handy, if you can simply call javah from cmake, if you try to compile Java-C bridge. Thank you.
