added AWT hack switch for 1.6 versus openjdk, more verbose sys props #40

Closed pslack closed 8 years ago

This is a fix for spinning wheel of death, we removed the AWT hack in cases where the java spec version is not 1.6, it is possible that the threading that was required in Apple's 1.6 does not quite work in openjdk ./ Oracle Java, this is yet to be seen, it may be that when awt loads up the threading is looked after by the native libraries. This also prints some more verbose info on boot up about the java environment, I have also begun to review JLI aware launchers (aka the java binary) and made some alterations based on the way oracle does the launch. Eventually we would like to be fully "JLI Aware" launcher but this will require some more study and metamorphosis. #39 #38 are addressed here
