[jira] [Created] (BIGTOP-1137) provide a way to request a major version of JDK

Roman Shaposhnik created BIGTOP-1137:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: provide a way to request a major version of JDK
                 Key: BIGTOP-1137
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1137
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: General
    Affects Versions: 0.8.0
            Reporter: Roman Shaposhnik
            Assignee: Roman Shaposhnik
             Fix For: 0.8.0


It could be quite useful to have bigtop-utils java detection code discriminate between major version of JDK so that an environment variable could help prioritize between Java7 and Java6.

I propose we introduce BIGTOP_JAVA_MAJOR environment variable that could then be set to either 7 or 6.
