             Summary: Set VALGRIND environment variable to be compatible with the QPID build
                 Key: PROTON-498
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-498
             Project: Qpid Proton
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: proton-c
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: Ken Giusti
            Assignee: Ken Giusti
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 0.7


The proton build system detects if valgrind is installed, and exports the VALGRIND environment variable for use by the tests.  However the proton build system sets this environment variable to 1.

The QPID build system also sets the VALGRIND environment variable, but it sets it to the path to the valgrind executable (eg. /usr/bin/valgrind, or equivalent).  The QPID test bed assumes $VALGRIND is the path to the executable.

Modify the proton build system to use the same convention as the QPID build system.  This prevents problems when switching from one build system to the other.
