[collectd] Configuring/compiling collectd with Java support on Mac OS X

[Geoffrey Arnold]

Hi Octo,

I started fresh and ran collectd-4.9.1/configure with the following options:

	$ export JAVA_CPPFLAGS="-I/Library/Java/Home/include" 
	$ export JAVA_LDFLAGS="-L/Library/Java/Home/bundle/Libraries -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/Library/Java/Home/bundle/Libraries" 
	$ export JAVAC="/Library/Java/Home/bin/javac" 
	$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/Applications/collectd-4.9.1 --enable-java

... and received the same error:

	libjvm  . . . . . . . no (libjvm not found)
	...
	configure: error: "Some plugins are missing dependencies - see the summary above for details"

Attached is config.log.

Thanks!
Geoff.
