Zulu JRE not found about javainfo HOT 6 CLOSED

Interesting...are you running JavaInfoTest.exe from that same console window?

Nvm, my mistake...

My guess is the Path environment variable hadn't propagated to the process from which you ran the test program.

It might be a good idea to read the environment variables and the Path directly from the registry as an additional check. That should "fix" the issue you experienced here.

Yep, that was indeed the problem. I am using Total Commander which recognizes changes of JAVA_HOME instantly, but changes of Path only after a restart.

I don't think this is a real issue as this does not happen with Windows Explorer. No need to do something about it.

I could attempt to read the environment variable values and path directly from the registry if they aren't in the environment of the current process. This would fix the edge case where someone installs a Java instance, updates the environment or path, but JavaInfo.dll doesn't detect it because the change doesn't exist in the environment inherited by the process JavaInfo.dll is running in.

I have thought about doing this (reading the environment variables from the registry directly) and it may have some unintended consequences (it may cause more confusion and cause more problems than it solves). Never mind...
