setting JAVA_HOME generally isn't required for running java at the
shell, just putting the right java bin directory first in the path is
sufficient...
when you invoke java, it sets JAVA_HOME itself if its not already set.
and, WOW, what a tangled web of symlinks.
export
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.65-2.5.1.2.el7_0.x86_64/jre
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
is the REAL java directory... but that will change with a minor
update. yuck!!!
