Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to Find JRE installed in linux machine..? Post 302163341 by ionutned on Thursday 31st of January 2008 08:18:20 PM

Unfortunately a solution like "which java" doesn't always work. For instance, I need to find the JRE location not for the binary "java", but for the library libjvm.so, because I want to launch a JVM from C native code.
The library path is something like this: "<JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so, and because of all symbolic links, if I get a path like /usr/bin/java using "which", it doesn't help me much.
