[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-4912) Configuring with $JAVA_PREFIX leads to $JAVA_PREFIX/usr/local/lib

["James E. King III (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4912?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16894702#comment-16894702 ] 

James E. King III commented on THRIFT-4912:
-------------------------------------------

The case for PREFIX should also be fixed; if PREFIX is set (and JAVA_PREFIX is not set) then JAVA_PREFIX should become $PREFIX/lib, correct?

> While configuring thrift-0.12.0 on Red Hat Linux and targeting Java and Perl, I used --prefix and defined $JAVA_PREFIX and $PERL_PREFIX in order to control where Thrift is installed. Both --prefix and $PERL_PREFIX worked as intended. However, setting $JAVA_PREFIX resulted in $JAVA_PREFIX/usr/local/lib. This is because of the following code in the configure script:
> if test "x$JAVA_PREFIX" != x; then :
>  JAVA_PREFIX="$JAVA_PREFIX/usr/local/lib"
>  elif test "x$PREFIX" != x; then :
>  JAVA_PREFIX="$PREFIX/usr/local/lib"
>  else
>  JAVA_PREFIX="/usr/local/lib"
>  fi
> I believe the above code should be replaced with one that sets $JAVA_PREFIX to /usr/local/lib only if it is not defined.
