Procrun improvements

[Remy Maucherat <re...@apache.org>]

Hi,

There are some problems with procrun for the VM setup. Right now, the 
only setting which works AFAIK is using "java" and letting procrun 
detect the VM using the Windows registry.

I think the following two items should be supported:
- I think it should be possible to specify a path to the JVM base 
directory (this feature is supposed to be present, but doesn't actually 
work for reasons I can't remember); using the config dialog to change 
the JVM path makes the config dialog refuse to start again
- when using "java", procrun should look at the JAVA_HOME env property 
before looking in the registry, to be consistent with all Java based 
tools available

If you want to open a commons BZ item for this, I can attach patches for it
(I'm not a commons committer, so the round-about is all we've got if you
want to go through me :).

The procrun is a little bit clumsy to maintain.
I'm working on the 2.0 version that will have spitted code
in few files that will be easier to maintain, with lots of
enhancements.

The question is do you need the mentioned features _now_,
if there is a new release on the horizon, or this can wait
for a week or two?
