[jira] [Commented] (BIGTOP-1704) Rewrite bigtop-detect-javahome

["Konstantin Boudnik (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1704?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14335410#comment-14335410 ] 

Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1704:
--------------------------------------------

Thanks for opening it, Mark!
Just want to reiterate my stance of the Python choice: the platform is known for all sorts of incompatibility issues (easy to google for proof-links). Also, Bigtop stack is coming with Groovy pre-packaged so no new runtime dependency will have to be added.

> bigtop-detect-javahome has been giving us problems. A few of us think bash is not the right language to do all that detection so opening a jira for re-writing it in a different more strongly typed language like python or groovy.
