Summary

0002633: Startup-Logging contains confusing Java Version since JDK 6u4

Description

Up to Sun Java 1.6.0_03, the version of the Virtual Machine was in accordance with the shipped Runtime Version. Such as:

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_02"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_02-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_02-b06, mixed mode, sharing)

With Sun Java 1.6.0_04 this has been changed. See also http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/ReleaseNotes.html#160_04 [^]

<..>
Changes in 1.6.0_04
The full internal version number for this update release is 1.6.0_04-b12 (where "b" means "build"). The external version number is 6u4. Included in JDK 6u4 is version 10.0 of the Java HotSpot Virtual Machine.
<..>

For example the most recent 1.6 JDK returns the following information when started with -version argument:

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b11, mixed mode, sharing)

The Startup-Logging of Resin includes the Output of "Java " + System.getProperty("java.vm.version") for example

[22:12:10.687] {main}
[22:12:10.828] {main} Windows XP 5.1 x86
[22:12:10.828] {main} Java 11.0-b11, 32, mixed mode, sharing, Cp1252, de, Sun Microsystems Inc.
[22:12:10.828] {main} user.name: stbu
[22:12:10.828] {main} resin.home = C:\Downloads\resin-pro-3.1.s080426
[22:12:10.828] {main} resin.root = C:\Downloads\resin-pro-3.1.s080426
[22:12:10.828] {main} resin.conf = /C:/Downloads/resin-pro-3.1.s080426/conf/resin.conf
[22:12:10.828] {main}

which is a little bit confusing since the above mentioned change. I think it would better to distinguish between the Java version (java.version), the Java Runtime (java.runtime.name + java.runtime.version) and the Virtual Machine (java.vm.name + java.vm.version).
