I looked at my /etc/bashrc and it is calling /etc/profile.d/java.sh, which looks like this:
Im going to assume that by 'calling' you mean that the entry in bashrc looks like this:
Code:
/etc/profile.d/java.sh
If that is the case, then you need to source the java.sh rather than executing it:
Code:
. /etc/profile.d/java.sh
That's a leading dot then a space.
When you export a variable in a script, it is placed into the environment, but is 'visible' only to that script and any processes that the script invokes. Environment variables don't/cannot perk back up to the parent process. If you are indeed invoking java.sh this is what is happening.
By sourcing the file, you are executing the commands in java.sh as though they existed in the current file, .bashrc in this case. This has the effect of setting the environment variables for the current shell as you desire.

FREEMIND(1) General Commands Manual FREEMIND(1)NAME
freemind -- A Java program for creating and viewing mindmaps.
SYNOPSIS
freemind [no_options]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the freemind command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has docu-
mentation as a mindmap (see Help menu in FreeMind).
freemind is a program that allows to create and view so-called mindmaps, as well as export them to HTML or different image formats. It
also has a plugin concept to extend its functionality.
OPTIONS
This program does not have any option. Just start it!
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
DEBUG If this environment variable is set, freemind gives more information on how it finds its different elements, as well as some
other information.
JAVACMD Default value for the java virtual machine (the java command).
JAVA_BINDIR
If $JAVACMD is not set, the java virtual machine is searched under $JAVA_BINDIR/java.
JAVA_HOME If $JAVACMD and $JAVA_BINDIR are not set, the java virtual machine is searched under $JAVA_HOME/bin/java.
PATH If all $JAVA... environment variables fail, the java virtual machine command (java) is searched in the $PATH (with which).
CLASSPATH ADD_JARS
The $CLASSPATH variable also lets one specify additional jars, which is good, if you want to add a new Look&Feel jar (the motif
one is so ugly...). Alternatively, the content of $ADD_JARS will be prepended to $CLASSPATH.
FREEMIND_BASE_DIR
Directory where FreeMind searches for its plugins and libraries
FILES
/etc/freemind/freemindrc ~/.freemind/freemindrc
freemind tries to read its environment variables from /etc/freemind/freemindrc and ~/.freemind/freemindrc, so that specific set-
tings are possible at machine and user level.
/usr/bin/java
If all searches through environment variables fail, the java virtual machine is expected to be /usr/bin/java; if not, freemind
exits with an error.
